Hello, I'm going to leave a critique, since this was in the critique folder in #OC-University . (I see someone else has left a critique already, so I'll try to touch on other topics and elements!) C:

To begin with, you've done a pretty good job on her hands! Hands can be a pain to draw, and you've illustrated the folds and bends quite well. The shape of the arm is also accurate and very natural.

The one thing I want to point out is the clothing folds. They look kind of unnatural at places, such as the sleeves. I think you were trying to five the wrinkles/folds variety by doing different folds on the sleeves (which is a good thing), but that causes it to look uneven. For the left sleeve, the wrinkles are horizontal, whereas the ones on the right are vertical (almost like it's pleated). Usually, folds go in the same general direction if it's on the same body part, unless the pose is asymmetrical and pulls the fabric in different directions. Here's a two-part clothing tutorial that may help some: [link] (There's a link to part 2 in the description.)
Hope this helps! C:

Hello :3 You submitted this to the critique folder in #OC-University so I thought I'd say a few things. First of all, this is very very cute and it's hard to find anything wrong with it! The coloring is very pleasant and the character is cute :3

The only things I've noticed that seem to be off (and they're all quite tiny things) are these: If she is walking, the pose might look more natural if her shoulders were more relaxed. I assume she is walking because one of her hands is further away than the other, but if I am wrong, then it might look a bit more natural if the hands matched a bit more. One way to make sure everything is even (you might already do this) is to flip the canvas horizontally while you're working on it. When you flip it back and forth, you catch little things that make it seem off. The only other thing I can think of is that since she has a generally curvy body (boobs and hips wise) it looks a bit odd that her ribs/abdomen area are not at all curved. This illustrates what I'm trying to say: [link] (pay attention to the way her side curves in at the middle and back out)

Those are the only things I can see that might improve the drawing. This is super cute! Hope that helps <3
