Hi, there!  I’m here from with some constructive criticism.

Overall, this drawing is visually appealing.  The bold line art, dramatic shading, and vibrant colors all work very well together.  The background looks fun as well; I like your choice of a slightly darker red and brighter green (in the lettering) to distinguish from Mocha’s sweater and hat.  The fact that the stripes don’t extend fully across the background is also an interesting effect.  In addition, Mocha’s straight-faced expression contrasts humorously with the cheerful brightness of the sweater he’s wearing, which gives the audience a distinct impression of his character.

You portrayed the lighting nicely throughout most of the drawing, especially the illumination from Mocha’s eyes and the bulbs.  I particularly like the lighting on the underside of his right sleeve.  However, I think the middle two tufts of hair on his forehead should be lit from underneath rather than on top (as they’re hanging down in front of his eyes, not behind them). 

In addition, the fluff at the end of the hat noticeably lacks shading, which looks a little awkward due to its brightness compared to the rest of the white in the drawing.  Similarly, the lettering of “Season’s Greetings” looks rather flat.  Giving the words a black outline might help them fit better with the style you used for the rest of the picture.

Other than the points I’ve made, though, everything looks great.  Keep up the good work!

I love the art style! I especially like that expression and those eyes! That glow effect is really cool too!

It's actually really close to my cat's perso because he gets involved or tangled up in everything.
And I mean everything.

That snowman is fabulous and it knows that! Haha. But honestly this is pretty nice! Honestly it kind of reminds me of Coraline character styles. I think it's the shape and eyes. I love it so much honestly your style is pretty cool!

Cool pic, but I see a few lines that cross where they shouldn't, some coloring outside the lines, and areas where the linework can be cleaned up. But overall, this is pretty well drawn and a pretty neat OC.
