I like the framing on this one, and the drama in its composition. The somewhat sketchier touch actually works for this piece.

Thanks! I have but I flatten the layers through the process, so I don't have it in layers.

love the use of the limited palette and I really love the roughness of it
makes it far more entertaining to the eye.

Thanks,I appreciate all the comments 
I think most important on the techique is it has to entertain you, creation of an image must be fun, you can feel it from the picture when it's finished.
wish you all the best with your own art and technique
