Description Though I'm not sure it's so friendly judging by Chaol's face xD

I had to change my design for Chaol...his hair from my first drawing of him just wasn't working, so I changed it and made it a bit fluffier, and also so it slightly drooped over his forehead as it describes his hair being near his brow in the book I think? Ah well..I tried? Dammit, Chaol why are you so hard to draw? D:

On another note, I quite like Celaena's dress, despite the fact it's probably really historically inaccurate xD
EDIT: Made Celaena look hopefully a bit more feminine without making her look overly small? cx

Ah, I love this!
Their expressions are spot on, and Celaena's dress is gorgeous (love love love the detail on her bodice) and they totally look like they strode right out of the book.

I saw the comments below, and I think Celaena's build is fine - she's curvy and gorgeous, and she's trying to build up her muscle mass so I think strong shoulders work for her. However, I think you might want to make her face a bit more feminine - if I compare this to the other picture you've drawn of her (where she had a more feminine face) I would suggest maybe making her eyes bigger, and her chin and nose smaller.

But overall I really do love this, you've captured their snarking perfectly <33

Celaena looks really masculine. xD Just.. had to point that out. Except for her hair. You did a really nice job with that. Whenever I attempt that style it's like..

And maybe I need to make her figure slightly less...broad? I am determined to make her look more feminine now xD

Aha xD I seriously have no idea how to make my drawings of girls look feminine...like..how do women work? D: Maybe if I gave her more visible eyelashes and lips? Would that work do you think? :3

When I draw girls I take their shoulders down a LOT.

Mmmmh. I'd make her build smaller. That's what caught me, to be honest.
