Description
It's supposed to be vaguely creepy.This started out as a doodle of like a doll face, but then it turned into this. I guess experimenting with traditional shading with a mix of a new style of coloring 8D I may do more of these. Maybe.
The hat doesn't sit right on his head, I know.
I can't draw animals.

i love it! i like how you've left the sketchy pencil lines and bits of shading, and even though it's creepy and i don't want to look at those eyes for too long, the detail in them is faaaab!

The clothing style is wonderful, and the bunny, or is it a rabbit, either way, just added a sudden cuteness of the picture. Although I can't quite see either one of them being a doll or stuffed toy. The eyes are my favorite part, they seem almost lost but know where they are. In any other words, I think this is adoreable, not really that creep as you hoped to be though.

It is vaguely creepy. Especially since I am rather terrified of dolls. But for some reason you make me like them... Anyway, love the outfit, but the eyes scare me. xD

Hm... Have you any ideas?

It's all in the tilt of the head. The thing that makes dolls really creepy is mostly the fact that they are so close to being normal looking. It's the bazaar stare, a smirk, a sneer, black eyes, eyes that follow you, that is so human on a human object that isn't alive that it is horrifying.
The tilt of the head gives the figure a personality, a larger train of thought that just a a blank expression or malevolent eyes.
That, and the shine on the eye seems more like a human eye that a glass doll eye, which I think get's rid of the creepy as well.
Look at this graph and learn >>> [link]

Ahh, yes, yes I know all about the Uncanny Valley! As I was reading that page was what came into my mind before I even saw the link. (I love TV Tropes.)
Good point, good input... You're right- As I was adding the light, I sort of knew that it made it more lively. I guess I should have left it be. Thank you, I'll keep all your tips in mind with the next picture!

The colours in this are charming. And from a glance the whole picture looked quite adorable but as I stared at it longer it began to look creppy! (Like a real doll xD)
But the doll is cute and I adore the left eye!
Heheh and that bunny is gorgeous! You don't draw animals bad xD
