    I made the vector from scratch, using the Lasso tool and Bucket Fill tool. I decided to use the stock font, Arial Heavy. Was made in GIMP, completition time is around 45 minutes. I don't really roam these parts of the forum, but a little contructive criticism would be appreciated.

    Can hardly read the "roots" part that's not on the arm. The mask looks kinda blocky and chunky, same with the fist.I like the simple colors for background + shadow things, but it looks strange how the darker shadow is having the lighter one show through.

    I was trying to show the features of the face through the mask, like the jawbone and ears. I don't know, not much I can do when it's all from scratch.

    I really like what you did, especially the "from scratch" part.

    Try making the text more easily visible, and making the person a bit larger.

    Also, I feel like the perspective of the eyes is incorrect. Looking at the silhouette, you can see more of the right side of his face, but the eyes are centered. Try squeezing the left (to the viewer) eye and moving the area between the eyes a tad to the left.

    It would've turned out better if you outlined the largest one, and then scaled the image down. When you scale it to be larger than the original it becomes pixilated. Unless you wanted it to be blurry around the edges.
