Description
While waiting there...they're talking about.....something...something stupid.Well, Eden again.... but this time she's talking to some other character, with a mohawk of some sort....right, who is he? He's slightly new... kindofnotreally....His concept is old, but his design is new that's for sure. His name's Aaron and he's actually Eden's cousin, probably the only one she likes to talk to in her family.
AND OH, WAIT WHY ARE HER EYE'S NOT ORANGE THERE?
Her eye's were green until she summoned Seak and then some shit happens and blah blah balh..bleg.
Seak...I felt sooo bad for leaving him out of this picture, but whatever..it takes place before she met him anyway.
Oh, and I was originally aiming for a cartoonier style (hence, the exaggerated proportions in some areas) but it ended up looking like my regular style after I inked it.

I don't care about the stars. Please ignore those ratings.
Love the complimentary scheme! The inking is also solid. And the composition is well-structured.
I don't enjoy the proportions on the girl's face. They're between cartoony, and awkwardly real. the eyes are up a little too high to look naturalβeven in the exaggerated sense.
The man's pose is interesting, but everything about his torso and arms are too rigid to look relaxed. His head hanging forward on his neck, thoughβthat is so solid. Love that neck/head relationship.
The lighting on the environment/ figures is inconsistent. The direction of the shade on buildings doesn't match the rest of the world. The sky looks like lighting should be diffused, but somehow strong shadows are being cast from a light source not inferred in the sky or anywhere else. I feel like you have a tendency to shade with grey. If you want a shortcut to a natural shadow colour, even on skin, try incorporating the background colour to tie it into a nice package. Colour gets more saturated as it darkens, not the other way around, so don't shade things with an even-keel grey shadow!
Concerning the actual environments' structure, it looks as if perspective is off on the slope up the hill, unless the top of that hill has a harsh squaring off to flat ground after the crest.
And finally, I love the attention to texture on the hair. If you incorporated more of that in the environment and avoided distracting the viewer, you'd sell this already-good image even more!
It was an enjoyable sight. Thanks for asking for the crit, and thanks for viewing. e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s⦠" width="15" height="15" alt="

Sweet, sweet, Thank you sooooo much for the critique. 
I spent a lot of time on the foreground I'd only wish the perspective looked better on the background so I see what you mean. And as for the proportions, haha yeah I thought they looked odd too, I was too undecided on what style I wanted to go with. 
While I was going for a more neutral and dull type of color scheme I only used grey in the background mostly, not in the characters. I generally don't use grey to shade with though, if you look closer, you'll notice that it's a very light, dull blue I shade with most times; sometimes I'll even use a red of some sort. I do think that the colors need to be pushed more in my pieces so I will keep those tips in mind.
Thanks again!

GUD THING SHE GOTS A MAN WIF HER. That looks like a great place to get mugged at.

Style looks cool to me. I guess Aaron looks a little cartoonier than Eden since his eyes aren't shaded, but I still think it didn't come out bad at all.
