Hello BYONDers,

I'm going to show you all what I can do as a GFX artist. Note that this is my first time, and C & C is welcomed.
To make this I used GIMP.

Thanks,

Assuming you're talking about the character, and not the background. Very well done.

As for criticism; maybe some practice exercises on treating hair and fuzzy fabrics as bulk objects and not small groups similar to blades of grass to enhance the overall effect.

Also, I'd highly doubt that level of light source usage would exist in a digital painting for the first time unless you've transferred from another medium that you've practiced. In which case, I must also assume that this is your work.

He didn't make the character, "GFX Artists"(As known on BYOND) use pre-made images by other people and such and mash them together into a collage and then add filters in photoshop/Gimp etc.
