Okay, so I thought I'd offer a bit of a critique on this, courtesy of Project Comment! Cheer or panic as needed.First of all, that composition is adorable! You make both of them look so natural, and the anatomy seems perfectly fine for chibi forms. I love that their heads are leaned together and the overlap of hair and ears makes everything look so fluffy! You clearly paid a lot of attention to the eyes, which are as sparkly as can be, the shine of the hair, and there's a lot of details in the weaponry and clothing that keeps the picture interesting upon multiple viewings. Also, your background, while simple, actually works quite well with the nature of this picture and the dense center composition, so for once the advice is not 'do more background stuff' and just 'make sure your background balances with the picture's composition.' This background very much does! I also think that you did a very good job of using the heart colors, magic swooshes, and eye colors to kind of link the drawing into a more uniform whole, given that on their own, the color palettes of each character might not be totally copacetic.Overall, this is an adorable picture and I like it quite a bit. But I'm here to give you potential avenues of improvement, so here goes.My first issue is that the face shading seems a bit flat. With all the lovely details of the eyes and hair, the actual faces--which inevitably become a focal point in pictures like these--seem extremely 2-D in a not so great way. You can keep simple shading on most of the rest of the body, but you want the chibi face to feel very round and kinda squishy to enhance the cuteness of it. It looks like you maybe had a little trouble trying to figure out the right darkness of shade to use, especially around the cheeks and jaw. You typically don't want much shading there (or very light shading that fades out), while you want heavy shadows below the bangs (which you've got) and a gradient type of shadow from the forehead to nose area (which you don't). If you can find a colored chibi reference, try to learn from example. I basically suck hardcore at shading, but I've gotten quite a bit better by spending time carefully reverse-engineering some of the cool stuff my favorite artists do.Second: the clothing looks really stiff. This makes a lot of sense since you probably got it directly from a 3-D video game sprite and they are literally the definition of stiffness, but the cool thing about art is you can get rid of that somewhat. I'm not trying to encourage you to learn all the draping lines from Roman statues (these are chibis for heaven's sake), but there are a couple of issues I can draw your attention to. On the white mage, her skirt is swooshing up like she's jumping up and down, but her hood and one of her sleeves looks totally stationary, and the other sleeve appears to be floating straight out to the side. If you're going to add bouncy motion to a picture, it's good to make sure all potentially flappy bits of clothing agree on which direction they're headed. If you want more stationary cloth depiction, such as with the black mage, one of his legs seems bent--which should affect the cloak over it, except the cloak looks pretty uniform on both sides. Also, his sleeves and the area above his belts are unlikely to have that tightly sucked in look unless he just put his belts and gauntlets on. A little running around and cloth actually bunches over the area, kind of like the folds you see at the ankle area of a pair of skinny jeans.Finally, while I love the magic swooshes (and how stylized they are--so cute!!), I feel like they might have been a bit of an afterthought. Effects are a huge pain in the butt, don't get me wrong, but especially on a white background like what you've got, every lack of ethereal fade becomes pretty glaring. This is because effects are rarely the result of the colors you see in a cool picture--but rather, the contrast between the colors of the effect and the background. White contrasts veeeery strongly, so either you have to make the colors really, really pale, or you want to sneak another color behind them to do the contrast for you. I don't think I can accurately explain it in words, so here's a tutorial that covers the basics.That's all I've got for now! Happy drawing and good luck. : DDD
