Overall

Vision

Originality

Technique

Impact

Vision: lets see... i really like the vision of this (or what i assume it is ...that would be more appropriate choice of words) it makes me think that the boy really misses someone.. you also get this from the title "Reaching You" and also from the lyrics you wrote down .. the only thing i would have done to make the vision stronger would probably be quoting the lyrics and putting them in the sky ... for vision i give you a 4.5 only cause i think you could have expressed you vision a little more

Originality: nothing is original these days ... so im not gonna get mad at you for using an anime for your idea... every one does it sooo (i dont really know where i was going on that..) anyhow i gave you a 5 for originality because you really did do something original... you didnt trace or do something similar to someone elses idea.... sure you got inspiration from something ... but whats an artist without inspiration? the thought was yours to create this... so it is original! (if this is confusing you .... well then ...that makes two of us!)

Technique: as i stated in vision you could have added more... only a little ....(hold that thought we will get back to it on impact) i like your technique! you went with an anime style ... and their isnt much i can say about the structure ... although it is very obvious that you are avoiding hands (ive been their...i know) trust me when i tell you it is a lot easier if you practice hands ... it will improve the picture if you have them in there ... of course the upside to avoiding hands is you can come up with a lot of poses without them... but that is also the down side... its a handicap ... and your poses without them will seem less realistic.... (ex: when you draw try asking yourself.. or try doing the pose yourself.... if you can do it comfortably ...its a good pose... if not ..then its not) (sorry ...i was ranting) for technique i also give you a 4

Impact: as i promised here it is.... you need to work on this a little. be careful on your color palet. you have a red balloon and and green eyes.... those do compliment each other but when you look at it you also dont know where to look... you dont really have a focus... the reason i said to put the lyric in the sky was to fill up your dead space.. the bottom is so busy that it pulls away from the beautiful sky... or you could have pulled the balloon more front and high center....(but thats only my opinion) The piece is strong but not quote strong enough... it feels like its...missing something and i cant quite put my finger on it...for this i gave you a 4

another thing i should have added under Technique! it seems you have two different styles going on at once... the background (with the balloon) seems more realistic ... then you have a cartoon anime guy at the bottom... even though you did pull it off ok.. its still a little awkward

hope this helps a bit!! (i hope i dont sound meannn!!! ;Ae.deviantart.net/emoticons/w/w… " width="15" height="15" alt="" title=" (Wink)"/>
