The pose and expression are really emotive - I love that! I can see a previous commenter gave some great feedback regarding values, which I also agree with It seems like you usually use just one pencil grade; maybe you could try experimenting with other grades? I also think the anatomy looks a little wonky, especially on the right (her left) breast - maybe if it was a little higher and just a bit less pointed it would look better. (I am really no expert though!)

Not gonna lie it took me about ten minutes to realize she was leaning against the seat I thought she was just kind of sitting in the middle of an empty train compartment and I was trying desperately to understand why

I really like the shading here, you've brought the folds in the clothes out beautifully, and you create such awesome expressions too, really adds a feel to the overall picture. The hair is wonderfully done, the little subtle shines are very effective. Great work!

it is a pretty nice piece I'm enjoying it but I think it is lacking quite a bit on the rendering. It has a potentially really good base to it, however, the values are too close together for anything to really stand out. It was difficult at first for me to make the pose out clearly because the value of the seat she's on is so close to her dress and skin that it had an almost camouflage effect. What could benefit this is to smooth out the seat and clothing and add darker values on the clothing where they need to be (shadow, etc) so that it allows her to pop out into the foreground. What's reinforcing her to stay back in the mid ground mostly is the sky as well since it has a similar value to that of the chair and around her head is this white glow it gets noticeably lighter in the sky as it gets closer to her. You could make the sky a darker value and that would have her head stand out with the light of the moon. Or what you could even do is lighten up the sky, get rid of the tree as it is in the background and too crisp for where the viewing angle is. And then add a specular highlight to the window pane to better show that it is a window and reflecting this light of the moon. Lots of options but play around with these ideas and keep in mind that you want the character in the foreground to stand out from everything else!
