Are You Cold?

I love this! First off, the textures used in this peice are really cool; they add a lot of character to this picture. The technique is very well done; I love the way you draw hair! There are a few minor techical details in this that could use work, however. For example, the blue-eyed person's left eye is a bit small, even when taking into account the angle that they're facing. I would suggest making the eye that's farther away from you in any 3/4ths view as tall as the closer eye, but covered ever so slightly by the bridge of the nose and maybe have the width a tad smaller. But other than that and some details in the folds of the clothes, I couldn't find any other technical mistakes.

I love their faces; their expressions are deep and meaningful. The textured orange sky is simple yet artistic. The shading is great, but I suggest to use a uniform method of shading. The skin is shaded with a hard, precise brush, while the clothes and hair is shaded with a soft brush. A great way to keep it uniform is to use both types of brushes; this adds more shape and depth to the characters without sacrificing the benefit of either method.

Overall, I think this picture is awesome; the thumbnail caught my eye immediately and when I saw that it was up for critique I couldn't help but to do so. You make excellent use of textures and you're really a great artist. I hope this critique helps!
