I like this one much more than than the last. My only criticism is about the yellow colors: the scheme is good, but these appear too similar. You might try darkening the background or lightening the foreground.
kick ass, Keith! this is the best of the series so far in my opinion.
nice color choices. the warm light yellow of the figure makes him pop against the cooler darker colors. i look forward to seeing more of these.
nitpick: there's a tangent where the snake's tail sort of touches the top border. i'd have it melt completely into that shape or pull it back. one of the other.
Wow, even better than the first one! Good work Keith - love the snake. I think I might write each of these dudes up as example characters for the game itself ... they just ooze character.
I like this one a bit less. I dunno, his colouring is a bit too yellow for me, I'd darken him a bit, he's also too sleek for me, not enough lines. I would at least like to look at a version of the picture with the green replaced with the same yellow as he is.
I don't know if it's the same problem with his eyes, but there aren't enough lines, enough dark spots on his face, and the line on his face's right side makes his face look like it's half a ball on the left.
Also, I can differentiate between shadows, I can see the line between his hat and the snake for example, and having them merge would be nicer, IMO, and more sneaky.

Somethin' bugs me about his eyes, but that's a nitpick, and I can't put my finger on a specific.
That said, I think this is one kickass piece. Looks like a poster for a period western. The colours are wonderful.
Keep 'em coming, Keith!

Really slick (i stole my copy from work, becsause that's what g-poles do).
As for color choice in ze illustration - great, but i'd rather see head of that snake sticking out more from the body...
