Character Concept.
[spoiler]
That should fix the size problem.
So, a new campaign I am starting with my friends entails me being a summoner.
This is my concept. This is only a sketch.
He is a Gnome with a Velociraptor Eidolon.

Freedom is to say that two plus two equals four, if that is granted, all else will follow.

Re: Character Concept.
Needs more spoilers. (Also, that mask looks kinda silly. The dragonhead is cool though. )

Re: Character Concept.
Definitely spoiler that image! It stretches my poor screen!
Also, the crop tool is your friend.
On the drawing itself, I like the Robin Hood-ish style the character has (though maybe it's more scarecrow than RH).
The bits and pieces of metal armor is a nice touch. So is the longcoat. Generally he looks very chaotic and maybe a weee bid crazy - which are cool traits for a sorcerer.
Like Domo, I don't like the mask. It looks like he's got a carrot for nose and bricks for eyes. Not very intimidating. Were you trying to mimic a Plague Doctor mask? Masks are generally awesome, though, so I support a redesign rather than removing it.
A few more technical comments:
The character's hat, and the velociraptor's head, are very nicely done. The crossbow is fine as well, though a bit crooked.
The velociraptor's foot looks like it'd be impossible to stand on.
Human(/gnome/whatever) feet don't bend like that. Really, standing like that would just be painful.
Nice attention to detail. The character's pose is not very dynamic, but I guess it doesn't have to be for a character portrait.
Good luck with your game!Spoiler

Re: Character Concept.
I was mimicing the plague doctor, maybe having him have killed one in the past. The eyes aren't final, working on them.
I plan for him to be a little wankers. Another player expects me to be a tank with the raptor, but I plan to just attack from a distance any maybe joke about fighting.
Thanks for the opinions, I appreciate it.

Re: Character Concept.
Gotta agree with Glass Mouse. I have to wonder why a non-combat sorcerer would wear plate mail, but it's your call there. Love the longcoat and the hat, but the mask could use a reworking, although I like the basics of it. If you're going for a plague doctor/scarecrow motif, maybe try replacing the armour with cloth?
