So how come you have a great credit-tag character / avatar, but when you try to shade this guy, it comes out terrible?

Wait a second.. are you THE Monty Oum? Samus Vs Master Chief? Then why.... . .



I didn't really want to say anything.. but.. identity theft? O.o

It looks like he edited the sprite (I'm guessing without permission) from Meta's sprites.

When you shade, keep in mind the material that light is falling upon. Cloth and metal will react to the light source differently. How you show this distinction adds life to your sprites.
In your image, the apron and the fur/skin are shaded the same way. While the technique I described above is a little more advanced, keep it in mind for when you get better.

Oh, if you did steal, shame on you.
If you didn't steal, whatever...
