Description Whoah! i really LOVE how this one turned out

tried a new shading style and went back to cell shading (with a hint of soft shading here and there)
This took longer than usual, but it's worth it!

Haven't drawn stuart in a long time, also decided to tweak their designs a bit again(why can't i stay consistent!)

Alfie has fleas.

I really am enjoying this piece of art and can agree with you and say that it turned out well. It is super original and I can tell you put a lot of effort into this (out of all my critiques, you have the highest score I've ever given in creativity. The shading is just perfect and the expresions are decent. althougth with the character on the left, I would uncross the eyes a but as they make it look a but zoned out and a bit strange. Also, the posture for that same character could be changed a bit, because as far as I can understand most people (and humanoid beings) tend to support themselves with straighter arms if their in a position like that and unless their in a chair. I completely adore this piece and hope that my feedback will help you make improvments in your art!

It's so cute!!! But next time try to put a space between the speech bubble and the character. Don't put it behind an object or character if you want it to "pop" to your viewers. There's nothing else wrong about this attractive picture.

It's a cute drawing. I think the cell shading works well here.
I'd try to find something to nitpick usually, but I can't on this one
Good job.

It's a secret, but, as a wise Figure once said;
"its no secret that the best thing about a secret is secretly telling someone your secret, therefor adding another secret to their secret colletion of secrets, secretly."
Just write "rad dad" on your sweater

Don't you find drawing characters difficult? You gotta remember all their proportions and background or something like that.

This is so incredibly cute! Look at his face! And look at that 'lil straw outside his helmet! It is overall very bright and colourful and it suits your style well!

As for critiques, I always find it very hard to critique as not only are styles are very different, you work with a completely different medium than I do. However I will give it a shot:

Overall there is not much to critique on, it is cute, it is fun and you put a lot of detail in it. If I were to recommend anything, it would be to give the background (and I mean the purple cloud) a different colour. The fluffy creature they are sitting on is also purple and it makes the overall picture a tatΒ 
crowded if that makes sense? It doesn't matter so much for Anna as she is a relatively light character herself, but the happy fish flea kinda looks darker because of this (if that makes sense).Β 
Also, I am not sure if the horned purple floof is meant to have a face or if that was added in as a cute detail, but I would personally position the face in the centre of the horns.
I hope this makes sense (and that it helps!). There is nothing else I can think of that I would change to be honest. Keep on drawing and pouring the cute characters. They are a treat to watch.

Thank you so much for the critique!
honestly, the background sounded like a great idea back when i drew it, the idea was to have purple as a dominant colour, but now that you mention it, it does kinda look crowded and bland.
the purple fuzzy dude is one of my characters named 'alfie', he's supposed to be a character that doesn't have a definite shape or form so i can draw him as weirdly as i can if that makes any sense...
again thank you so much for the critism(though i suggest using the critique widget)

Ha! I love this!
I know you're looking for critiques, but I honestly can't think of anything to say. I love the expressions, I love the composition, the scarf, the straw... all the little details are just amazing. Fantastic.Β

Thank you so much!
any kind of critiques are welcome, (i'm trying to improve as fast as i can during the holidays)
And if i'm being honest here; the scarf was sort of an accident
