Loving the semi realistic look that they have. It seems like they could be from a different world or maybe not. That's why art is subjective everyone has their own stories or ideas for things. I like what you did with the background too.

Thanks, I wasn't too sure about the background. The ref had no background at all.

Out of the three works of your's that I saw, this one is definitely the most evocative. I for one can feel the dark mood you are trying to create here.

Nice, this had a digital looking quality to it, and then I saw it was traditional. I remember commenting on your work before and you have improved a lot. I really like the use of colors it has a dreamy feel to it and I really like how you handled coloring the hair. Nice job!

Thank you. Glad you like the hair, because I had used ink as well as coloured pencil and I wasn't sure about it.

Beautiful piece no doubt colors work well together and are blended nicely everything is sharp nicely detailed my only suggestion would be to make the faces fit the head better the facial structure and features are a bit too small compared to the size of the head other than that a gorgeous piece over all especially considering the tools used for the piece keep up the good work

Thanks so much for your feedback. You're the second one to state about the facial structure; noted for next time!

the story sounds quite interesting^^love that u did this with traditional media, the colors are very smooth and even the smallest details like the floating spheres are visibly sharp. great job^^

Your colours in this were chosen really well, and they go well together. I think you need to work on your anatomy though, their faces are a little wonky which takes away from the overall impact of this piece.

Thank you. I suspect they are wonky, but I don't know what's wrong.

I am amazed that this piece was done in colored pencil. Yours are in league with some of the finer examples I have seen in using those tools. You must have an incredible degree of patience, and a strong drawing hand, without a doubt.
I love all the little spheres floating about. They necessarily add interest, while being integral to your story. I can see that you had some fun with them, and I think that's great. I would have liked to see a few more of them obviously covering the margin lines dividing the rectangular shapes in the background, in order to make them appear a bit more random, but perhaps you have specific design reasoning for how they are laid out which I'm not aware of. In any case, I find them to be very interesting. They pique my curiosity.
You mention that you had color reproduction troubles, possibly attributable to the upload process. Well, I find the colors to be very pleasing just the way they are, but you may want to research your file creation, handling and uploading options, but of course, you're probably already thinking about and working on that.
You show great form. You present a nice composition. You create excellent expressiveness in your characters. The piece has plenty of positive qualities. I would have liked a bit more detail on the fellow's ear, and I'm curious why I see what looks like a 5 in there. I think it's simply due to the way some lines converge. My one suggestion for you would be to spend some time really working on understanding the anatomy of ears. I think that effort might serve you well.
It certainly is very nice work, in keeping with your usual excellence. A trip through your galleries quickly reveals how hard you have worked and how much you have improved over time. We have enjoyed what you have shared with us.
Thank you.

Thanks for the feedback!
Ja, the spheres are supposed to be inside the margins of the 'bricks' since although they float, each has their place. One can draw open the bricks for more supplies; the spheres serve as labels to the more important stuff. Quilhiril can fly as well, but it requires considerable skill.
I had trouble with both their ears; the main being they looked too similar. Yep, more practice needed there.
I wasn't too sure about their faces, especially Ruth's, so I'm glad that looks OK.
