Classic toons are always fun to see. And even more so to draw.

I absolutely love the old black and white cartoon styles, and you've done that blend of your style with that perfectly.

The background IS somewhat bland, But I judge the actual character, not the environment.

5/5.

Well hey true so keep going. Not bad though and nice background. It's plain but hey it's something and does what any background does...lie back there. Good work.
