Haven't posted one of my creations in a long time here. So I made this fun Tomato Launcher! Feedback on my Tomato Launcher please!

Cannon: The shading isn't showing the image's shape that well. It feels flat to me. (Assuming it's a cylindrical shape.)


Tomato: It doesn't feel like a tomato. Try to darken the bright shade and possibly give the perfect circle some defects.

Ok thanks. Since your suggesting to touch up pretty much everything, it's gonna be a little hard to edit. Might just make a new launcher or make a new version. Thanks for the feedback and tips though!  

First of all, color choices need a little work. Shading style, even though your dithering, your pillow shading throws off the depth/shape of the object. I think this is due to the fact that your using each shade of red equally, theres just as much light pink as there is dark red. why is that bad? because it doesnt tell people what the REAL color of the object is. If all of the shading was the same length, then what color is the actual color of the object. you must determine WHAT shade of red is your BASE. THEN you darken what areas might need some shade and you lighten the small areas where light will hit the object.

Thanks Zerith. I'll try to make a new version of the Tomato Launcher.  

Heres an example. its nothing much but i kept the outline of your object and tried to give a little change to it.
