Well done! Cute concept. And I LOVE the tagline: 'Shiver in fear. Hug your bear. Rocketman is here.'

I didn't notice that before, but the 'r' does look like a 'p' now that you mention it.

It's not for anything realy. It's just a product of a little bit of dreawing and a little bit of illustrator. Thanks for the comments people :)

The character's great, but the text could do with a little work...
Personally i don't like the way the word 'Little' is obscured by the gun; and the 'R' does look like a 'P', which is a shame because apart from that the font looks really good!?!

Don't think I've said that. For this thing I used only illustrator. Dreamweaver is, as you probably know, for webdesign. Thanks for the positive comment :)

Nice characters man. Love the colors.

Graphic Design Heroes! Call me Captain Type Caster. I’ve fought off “The Evil Cosmic Sans” for year but it seems “Dr. Extreme Untalent” keeps bringing him back. I must find a way to defeat this evil creature.
Capt. Creative bring me those comps…

He's got gray heit cause that's what helped the design the most. I wanted to keep the colors simple. It just could not be red, yellow or brown. White was an option, but it was to flat. So then grey was the best option.

Personally I love it. Its great. You did an outstanding job with the coloring and details. I agree about the text in that the R looks like a P and 'little' is obscured by the gun. Perhaps using a different font and then using a reverse text effect on 'little' similar to the one used on 'Rocketman' That may define the word quite a bit. *hands you two pennies and smiles* Just my two cents :)
I'm not a complete idiot. Some parts are missing.

Be quite and drive (far away)
I think it is great...
except...
he has messy hair yet immaculate clothes... is he an immaculate guy or is he grundgy... if he is immaculate and particular perhaps he should have a more combed hair appearence (god help me spell!) If he is more of a grunge guy... his cloths are far to clean... look around you how many straightlaced guys who wear nice outfits have a grundge hair look... and if it is grungy.. believe me every hair is precisly placed...
I just think it might help the character express his character more if you exagerate what look your going for.
in short... the little guy doesn't seem to fit his cloths..
very nice aside from that...
