Seriously, how the hell does that help in the slightest?!
Onto the chop:
The brushing is coming along very nicely

However i feel at this moment it is somewhat blurry - so sharpen it up a bit

But it fits nicely with the theme and that bg
As for the rims, i actually think they look pretty cool, but they look to have far too much contrast.
Other than that it's looking very nice

Keep it up
