Hi. I'm from Project Comment!
I hope you find my critique useful.
I like the tone and atmosphere of the piece! It really adds a nice touch. You did a nice job with details. The valley below looks pretty good in a dark grey. I feel like the black spots are trees. Whatever they are, they add a very spacious look to the piece. I like the mountains in the background, too. They give the painting a cool feel to it, but I feel like you should work a little bit more on the bottom of the white, snowy parts. It looks like they pop out in front of the darker grey of the mountains. A way to change this is to just blur it a little, since objects in the distance usually tend to be less clear. You don't actually HAVE to do this, as it depends on style, but if you were going for a more realistic piece, then you should. Next, I like the shading and blending of everything. I love the smooth look of the mountains, and Shaddy's jacket. Speaking of Shaddy, I like how you made his image a little sharper than everything else to give him more clarity. It gives that photographic look to the piece. Now, with the stars, I personally think you should tone down the amount of large stars and irregularly shaped ones, just a bit. In real life, most of the stars you see in the night sky are much smaller. With the moon, I like the glow around it, but there should be less glow around the darker side, and the edge of that side should be blurred just a bit. Other than that, the rest of the piece is amazing! I hope this helped. ^^
