Aaron Badge for Islington

The theme for this one was 'After a concert', and has Aaron where I tend to find myself: across the street from my house at night, with a jacket over my suit and it's chilly.
I put more planning into this than I normally would, and I'm very happy with it. I only need to figure out how to turn this into a badge. (I have an idea involving the printers in the photography room and a copy store, but maybe I can think of something better?)

Yeah, I felt this mood while watching this pic.
I like the little details and patterns, like the dots on the cement, and the hatching on the clouds.
Colors and border look nice too. It's got that cold feeling to it.
If I were to spend a months worth of practice on one skill, what should I improve on, do you think?
It seems like you've developed your own stylistic approach using straight lines, geometric shapes, and solid colors.
This isn't a bad thing at all. It looks nice, and it has a unique feel to it.
If I could give you any advice (and I'm no expert on the subject), I'd say do practices with different variations of lines (thin, thick, nonexistent). Maybe try drawing very small, thus limiting the amount of strokes you make.
I can say, that the following works are the most impressive to me:

These two seem to use very thin lines, or no lines at all. Definitely try to sketch on some thin paper, and the draw/paint/marker on top of it.
But really, whatever you do, the more you practice, the better you'll get. No doubt there!
