Hello I'm from ProjectComment

This piece has very nice colors. It's bright and not boring due to all the shades you're using. However I would suggest working on some technical skills especially understanding of anatomy. The feet for Japser is on the small side and the arms of all the gems are off and not believable. Work on drawing with a pencil and use your wonderful coloring skills and choices to bring them to life.

Hello I am commenting on behalf of .

I like starting all my comments by stating what it is about the artwork that I like and admire.  With "Spring Afternoon" lets start with your color selection.  You titled your piece "spring" afternoon and you certainly did a wonderful job of making feel like spring with all the bright wonderful colors.  The blue, green, and pink are just terrific.  They really give you a nice warm feeling.  In addition you've added some pretty flowers to the wonderful afternoon scene and you can practically smell the fresh clean spring air.

If I might suggest a couple of spots you could work on.   Looking at your drawing it is a little difficult to tell exactly what it is the flowers-in-the-hair girl is doing.  I'm guessing she's lying down.  She could just as easily be standing on her heels.  You need a little better perspective here. In addition where is your light source coming from. You have shadow on both sides of the blue girl and all around the flowers-in-the-hair girl.   If it's behind the trio, the front of the blue and green girls should be shaded on the hair part as well.

Your drawing is really wonderful and shows a magnificent imagination.  With a little work on the technical aspects of the drawing you'd be well on your way.

Please keep in mind nothing stated in this commentary was meant to degrade or belittle your wonderful work.  It is simply one mans humble opinion.  Have a great day and keep drawing.

You requested a critqiuic c: So here is my advice the best I can give.

First off, I really like the scene you created it's very peaceful. I also liked that you worked in some shading in the foot and in the grass. It looks very nice. Somethings off the bat I noticed is your lineart. I like that you colored it to match along with the shaded areas and the different colors. It looks really nice in contrast to the rest of the pieces and blends in very nicely. The only concern is the smoothness of the piece. The line art along with the grass looks really rough and messy I suggest cleaning it up. If you're using a mouse it's often really hard to get smooth lines, my only suggestion for you would to be get a tablet and if you have a tablet depending on what program you're using try to alter the stability to make it feel more like a real pencil and paper.

Another thing I've noticed. I like how you shaded the hair but I feel like you did not go dark or deep enough and it sorta makes the image appear a little flat. Don't be afraid to go darker. If it were me I'd add shading all around the grass not just where the shadows are. Pick a light source then having it move darker away from the light. But shadow is important as well. The more depth and dramatic difference to darker to light the more your piece will pop.

Another thing I think your anatomy here looks really good but I still think you can use some improvement. Don't be afraid to use reference photos and try to draw off of real people. I suggest you use photos of real people, cosplayers, model's like SenshiStock , or whatever in google. Looking at the real thing and copying the pose helps a LOT. It's not art thief as long as you give credits while posting.
so far from what I see you're only struggling with face and portions. The bodies look a bit too small especially for the characters don't forget measurements matter. I know how tricky it is with canvas size and wanting to fit a while thing on a page trust me I've been there P;

All and all this is a good piece. 

Hopefully I wasn't too mean.
