Thanks!

It's actually MS paint because I don't have a tablet compatible with any better art programs at the moment.... Or a working tablet at the moment....

It's okay! I was having trouble picking the background color so tried to pick something in the same color family! I would love to hear your suggestion! I'm always looking to improve my art!

Well I ain't got no tablet at all-but I could suggest the one I've been using
medibangpaint.com/en/pc/

It got quite some stuff to use as layers and such. Honestly just knock yourself out and go wild that's what I did when I first messed around with it
Also, and I hope this doesn't come across as wrong-I kinda already did a kind of example for your drawing- and then I went a little nuts and things got out of hand-
maybe you just want to take a look at it yourself 


Basically I tried to use something that is still close to the original color but muted down (trust me muting down the background if you have vibrant colors in the foreground will make the characters pop out more and put more focus on them)
and then things went a little too far with me starting to add a gradient-shadow like effect in the overlay and on the characters and giving the faces glow effects cause I am always so extra-

Also, I would suggest always using a color different from the main colors of the character that you show in the foreground for the same reasons I stated earlier, making them stand out and not having them somewhat "drown" within the same color
it can still work with colors very similar to the character itself, as long as it is still a different hue of that same color,
I'm just gonna give you a link of what I mean below this, it's still kinds of blue, but of noticeably different hues, so the character stands out from the background

PS I am sorry for this much text-Love your work and keep doing what you do!

 Whoa! What you did with it was awesome! Having a visual representation of things helps me learn things a bit better (As long as you don't post this and claim it as your own and just leave it as an example in your stash, then we're good)!  Sometimes its good to go extra! (I am going to save this a reference sort of thing so...yeah! I'm not going to upload this version for that reason.)

Also thanks for the advice! Sometimes I have trouble with picking the right colors and I've always had trouble with backgrounds so thanks for that! I'll keep that in mind when I decide to do more digital art!

Glad you like my work and thanks for the advice and encouragement!

I am glad you like it!  
(And of course not! I would never post anything
without giving proper credit and asking for permission first!) 
And yeah-for me it's always easier to "show don't tell"
since I find it much easier to simply show on an example than having to put it in words-
And ya can always hook me up if you need a second opinion!   
Or just to talk in general-maybe share some art cause I love showering people in compliments or make friends-I would love to make friends with you!
