My first ASCII - comments and help wanted

This is my first attempt with ASCII art. I wasn't able to make any ears that
could satisfy me. Also, he's not really "holding" the club as I intended him
to do.

Any Help and comments is welcome!

The ears aren't perfect, but it's a start, isn't it? :-)

Ideally you should aim for an font with characters twice as high as
wide (as on an typewriter).

Draw an sqare of identical characters (or view this):

               LL
               LL

Count the pixels for the vertical and horizontal distances (for
example how many mouse pointer positions you can move to).

For an screen with sqare pixels (most newer ones, exept 1280x1024) you
should have double the number of pixels vertically (I use 8x16 pixels
font).

For non sqare pixels simply take into count that the screen size is
4x3, so divide both of these by number of screen pixels and then
multiply with font pixels to get the ratio which should be 1x2.
