Im getting my music news/blog blah site set up, and i am needing a mascot.

My first idea for the music junkie was a normal plain guy, which is basically this:

but then i thought maybe i could give him MJ's features, since you know MJ is basically the king of music in my opinion. Even though my site isn't about him specifically, i still want him as an icon of music to be all over the site and so on, if that makes sense.

So i came up with this, but it looks a lil odd maybe? I am still working on it, let me know what you think so far.

thanks
 
nice !!!
I'm not so sure but IMO,the mascot was a bit heavily accessorized. Maybe you would like to take the necklace out and replace the spiky hair with Michael's signature curl ? :)

Overall, you did a great job. He does look like MJ :)

i don't want him to look intentional to mj. want him to look like a music junkie (which is what the site is for), who loves Music including MJ. So he tends to look like him.

or i can take features from all of the greats, and mix them into one guy. i dunno

I made his head smaller lol

Hey, I like those designs. Just thought I'd give you a bit of feedback. :)
Your second design looks like its intentionally meant to be MJ. I think your first design is more appropriate because its not focusing on one music artist. I do like the idea of incorporating elements of artists into your character though. Maybe you could use subtle things to change your character, like put him in a single glove. Use other artist's signature features too, like hats/tattoos/glasses etc.
Hope this helps! :)
