Yeah, the background could have been cropped better, but it's hardly even noticeable until you point it out. Really, I think if you had cropped it better it would blend the character with the light backdrop, arguably detracting from the overall effect.

Well, glad you guys like it anyway, I guess I'm pretty satisfied with it myself.

I think it's cool as it is too. I even like the texture! (Whether or not it was intentional)

Nonsense! It's perfect the way it is! I like the background you used. It's like something is about to happen.

I could've done a little bit better job with cropping the background of the original image, but... I was just lazy.

I loved that part.
