Hah, I am surprised you requested critique on this.First of all! this is a really successful image. The color palette is pleasant, and you distinguish foreground and background elements very successfully even though you did not render objects as fully three-dimensional.Your subject matter has a very broad appeal (as evidenced by the thousand-plus favorites you have on this image as I type). If I had to point out anything to pick on, I would have to mentionThe shapes are great, but the right ear is turned all the way around backwards. Is there something I am misunderstanding about the structure of this animal's ears, or is this stylization that does not work well in an image that implies three dimensions? If this was just line art, I doubt I would have even noticed because it would read very clearly as a symbol instead of a possible error of judgment.Some aspects of the character's design are confusing. I do not understand how the knee and the decoration on the knees (are these part of the body, or is this a garment) would work if the creature were standing. It's very possible that I only think that because I have not seen the character in a standing position.I see you reflected the colors of the foliage onto the creature's tail, which is great. It falls flat in comparison to the rest of the figure, however. The tail does not appear to recede into the background, making it look a bit like a cardboard cutout or fan behind the figure.Your painting technique is so nice and smooth! I have a lot of respect for it.Thank you for allowing us the opportunity to critique your work.
