Essentially, I've become quite obsessed with adding a little light and shadow to some things... these are a couple of pages from the sketchbook as I practiced blocking out shadow shapes on these characters, designed (as most things are, when I don't have any other direction) for Bibliotech.
I've gotted a lot of positive response to the knife dude, so I expect he's a lock for use at some point... but the cat in the hat looks a bit too much like the bounty hunter that cut down Hugo in the second volume (or episode, if all you've seen is the anime) of Battle Angel Alita. Too bad...

I love this kind of work. The silhouette of the knife dude just presents a more interesting character than the cat in the hat; that guy just looks a little cliche in comparison. I do like how the shadows play on the bottom pic.
What if you took the trench coat off, and played on the wrapped torso look? Like a serpent-inspired martial artist who could easily be in the same clan as the psycho knife dude. The farmer cap could be the top of a wicker basket alluding to a charmed snake.
His static pose is rather uninspired, but while I'm giving suggestions to a pro (I understand the irony), I'll finish these thoughts by suggesting he wraps his leg around the staff, his body supported by it as a snake might coil a branch- as his static pose.
I love your art!
