I love him. He's my favourite character.
Your blending of colours is gr8 and the use of a dark background helps Tuls stand out more. Also, the line art is very clean. The direction of your light source is nice too, though you should of put some highlights on the leaves that are on his body and/or detail. In my opinion you could of used a picture reference for the bird to make it a bit more realistic (but hey that the only "problem" with it). In conclusion, this drawing is is smooth and clean on Tuls behalf. Keep up the good work, cause it's amazing! e.deviantart.net/emoticons/w/w… " width="15" height="15" alt="

What immediately stands out to me is the lack of consistency in the image's line art as well as the way in which some aspects of the character blur into the background, while the colours of the character indicate that it should stand out at the forefront of the image. This inconsistency makes the image look ruched and potentially unfinished.
Additionally, regarding colour, at least three of the leaves on Tuls' torso appear to be lacking in either highlights or shadows (middle of the torso [picture left], the leaf just below the aforementioned, and one leaf just above his raised arm [lower right image quadrant]).
The highlights, particularly on the butterfly, are very nice and while the contrast between the basic reds of the leaves and their purple shadows look wonderful on Tuls himself, the excessively dark and off-colour shadows on the bird resting on his hand are very disconnected from the basic colour. This is also a place of excessive shadows where the lighter tones on Tuls' arm would lead out to believe this area to be more under light than shadowed. I should also note that I feel the piece would have benefited to have the light from the butterfly's wings reflected on Tuls' leaves.
The attempted detailing on the character's neck is nice though perhaps could have used a little more attention, particularly in the way in which the 'bark' of his body bends and forms to what would be a humanoid neck. This also applies to his left horn [picture right]. Similarly (though perhaps on the opposite side of the spectrum) Tuls' left arm would have benefited from far more detailing with regards to the vines/foliage comprising that arm.
Additionally, I also really like the way the background creates a leaf-like forest effect and surrounds the character, bringing them into the foreground. However, I think a little more detailing in the center of this leaf-like forest, adding in forest and foliage, if only slightly, would have been very nice. Alongside that, I feel as though the tiny patch of lighter green in the bottom left of the image could have been taken out for the benefit of the background and its effect in accenting the foreground subject.
Otherwise the image is well done and very accurately portrays Tul's melancholy behavior.
That's all I can offer up at the moment.
Hope it was helpful.

I really love the design and the color scheme of the character. Hie green skin complements along with the red feathers on his outfit. I also find it creative that you added small woodland creatures onto him. It fits his forest theme. This gives of a peaceful look for the creature that looks a bit menacing. The lines coming from his neck kind of though me off, cause of the mixture of red and bright green. I suggest to either to remove the lines or make the rest of them red, leaving out the green ones. Not to mention the ear of his is a bit too long, cut it down a size or to. Other than that, your art piece is magnificent. Keep up the good work.
