I like the style.
It is cartoon-like.

Not many arts have this feeling.

Ironic.  I was told too much of my work was "cartoonie".  I advised
them it was a limitation of not having the ability to use any gray and
that the only way to solve the problem was to work on such a large
scale that one can loose sight of it being ascii art and having it
look more like stipple.

I often try to remove the cartoon-like qualities as much as possible
in most of my works.  Sometimes, though not often, I want it to be as
cartoon-like as possible.

No don't .. Cartoon-like qualities are just that .. qualities.
Don't see them as flaws.

Whoever told you that cartoony was bad ?

I agree.  If I didn't I wouldn't be doing ascii art.

> Whoever told you that cartoony was bad ?

The man who pays me to do ascii art.  So his wish is my demand.
This whole thing should be done soon and I can then release all of the
works that have been piling up.  I promis not to flood the group.  On
pic a day should do for a while.
