I can't really tweak anatomy here but I think the front paws need to be facing more... front xD
First off, it seems like there are a lot of style switches in this piece which make it somewhat disjointed. The trees are cartoon, the character is semi cartoon, the clouds are realistic and the moon and path are semi-realistic. Personally I feel that your backgrounds need to loosen the edges a little. Where the ground meets the sky it would be nice if it wasn't a hard line. Same with the moon, the edges would look nicer more painterly in my opinion. Also, when coloring it would look good if you added some texture and different tones. Not different shades but actual different colors within say the grass. The moon could be a bit blue and a bit purple as well. The clouds could have some greens. It would just add more depth.

this picture was experimental and I was trying to shy away from my usual style, obviously I reverted back to it in some places and made it look bad. Thanks for the crit I'll keep it in mind.

Oh wow that does suck~
Never tried ps but my friend has it as well as sai and she uses sai. I told her she had to get it and as soon as she tried it she was sold, I don't think she uses ps to draw in anymore...
thanks for the link~

I have PS but I dont understand it, my art class has PS but I'd be so lost :/

that would suck major.
Trying to use an art program that you don't understand and then get graded on it?
not cool.
PS has more cheats and effects though right?

yeah it does, but I dont like how they look (like leaves, I hate photoshop leaves and grass) besides in my opinion everything looks better when its done by hand ^^

Yeah the brushes look fake, I especially hate the moon brush,it looks SO fake...
yeah, all that foliage looks better hand done, then it's more organically shaped. And more like trad media in a way..

mhmm. I'm really picky, I dont even use the line tool in sai, everything is hand done. It actually took a wile to convince my self to use any brushes besides pen, air, blend and the eracer

Yeah, I use the pen, brush, eraser, water (not often) and blur tools as well as a liner tool I made myself from the ink pen and a light eraser I made for erase away shading. Oh and I use air brush~ But that's about it... Not to crazy on other settings, I think you can make any texture with those.

I've been experimenting with brushes a bit, its a lot of fun, got a fur brush, cloud brush, a weird paint tool that makes things look like scales. Its fun messing around with different stuff
