still not sure about the chest, are those lungs?

i like his old eye more.

Also I just observed generally , and i noticed the art has lost some of it uniqueness compared to the first few iterations. but i think this is a fine trade as i dont have a lot of time to do art, so copying and learning from already existing yume nikki artstyles seems like the best option.

make highlights less obvious

i think his head is still to fat, looks like hes leaning left

too big head, colours clash to much, right eye half a pixel smaller

his heads to oval, and its looks like he has a durag on also gradient on the bottom is to much
