Why Gryffon hates Paint

So, I've taken complete leave of my sanity and decided to post a few of my latest MS-Paint character drawings. Feel free to point out how my shading's wrong (I tend to just guess, not the most effective method, I know). I only ask that you keep in mind that these were all done in short amounts of time with a minimalistic color pallette. So, shoot away.

I really wish you'd put your beak to the grindstone and get some practice and learn some new techniques.

I'm quite proud to say I've made my first weapon, which would seem to be something of a right of passage for Graalians.

Ah. My intent was to keep the top near the ice silver, but I guess that works as well.

Amazing what just changing the outline to a relative color other than black can do for an image.

So...my first attempt both at integrating PhotoShop and non-black lines...

Also, I got bored during lunch today so I tackled a goat-drinking demon in 10 minutes.

The sword looks nice. And the character is cool. :]
But, on the round picture image, you used a black outline.
I never use a black outline, unless the rest of the image has really dark colors.
It makes it look smoother and blend better.
See what a difference it makes:
