This landscape illustration douses somehow tell a story. Just by looking at, even with or without the full descriptions or tags. Of this very fine piece, it depicts a story of childlike innocents. That is challenged by an unnatural horrifying creature of the dark.

It's not difficult to tell the difference between digital and traditional painting. The brushstrokes vibrate the cramped surrounding. Bold colours illuminate the tunnel, giving it a little fantasy creep fracture. A strong word to describe this fairy tale nightmare, but not in a bad way.

Your piece has details but slightly misshaped, with the brother's feet.

I love the vibe of this drawing. Overall, it is a wonderful piece of art. Although, the scale is a tad bit wonky. If you were going for mini humans, the chick should be a bit larger, as compared to the insect that seems to be a cricket. The fingers on the male human's right hand is a little flayed and stiff. I'd recommend putting the fingers together, and maybe bending the wrist back a bit, well, towards the chick. The feet are a bit blocky, so maybe rounding out the toes and pinching the toes, as in narrowing the toe area. Other than that, I love the techniques you used, and the lighting is superb. I personally prefer the lighter version.

This is amazing, the colors, the texture of the cave itself and the characters themselves. The pallet used gives a cold and eerie vibe and it’s really nothing like pieces I’ve seen before. However there are a few errors here and there such as the circular head of the boy despite this being mostly a realistic piece or the arm of him seeming slightly too long for his leg and torso lengths. But other than those small errors it seems like a solid piece, I don’t really know what to suggest in order to improve but this piece is just really intresting and I’d love to see a story about this.

Hello there !

Colour :
I think the choice of colors is very appropriate in giving off the vibe of a gloomy storybook picture. I also happen to like how you made the main characters (including the cute little chick) a warm color to show maybe that they are the light lost in the darkness surrounding them. I love the symbolism and the use of warm grey highlights too to highlight the cave so it looks unified.
I think the only thing I would change is the color in between the.... lines of the cave(?) or wherever they are because it is quite light and maybe a transition from a dark color to a lighter color in the in-between would've brought depth to the artwork.

Concept :
I love the contrast of characters as mentioned in the previous point. It's like these children get lost by some cursed fate because they've shrunk and now they have to find a way to get back to the light with only each other to depend on and an adorable little chick. 
Hm... well I think the piece is already pretty good but seeing action would've been interesting. From the audience's perspective, I could interpret the picture as them trying to fend off the insect or them attempting to run away from it. I guess it's not too clear but that's what the words in a storybook are for I suppose. I think the reason why is because the kids seem ready for action but the chick has no idea what's going on.... or maybe that's really what's happening HAHAHA

Construction :
Your technique in creating depth is actually pretty good! This is really hard to do especially since there's a play with light and the foreshortening of the characters to match that depth. The texture all around is also really nice. It gives it this "roughness giving way to silkiness that morphs around you and consumes you" kind of feel which matches well with the theme. The textures on their clothing are also really nice and make the characters interesting to look at.
One of the points I could suggest to make this look better is probably a contrast in texture like it could fade out the closer it is to the spider giving this "the insect came out like something from a nightmare or a dream" kind of feel I suppose?

All in all I honestly do truly love this piece and I can't wait to see what you'll do in the future! Keep up the amazing work <3

I think I might actually prefer this lighter version. See my commentary on the dark version.

This is not really worth a serius critique, but there is a detail that calked my attention. What is the boy wearing? It looks like he is wearing some kind of plain superhero jumsuit thing without details?
(I’m sorry, but I am not an experienced digital painter at all, so I should probably leave the critique to someone who knows better the medium).
