Description
Haaaaar.*B1nd1 s awesome characters from her balloon comic. The boat was so fun to paint, but my attempt to give depth to it using colour didn't really work, haha. Oh well.
...I should really start studying for exams.

Weell - firstly! OMG SCRII, LET ME FAN-GASM. You're doing humans now???? (has been under a rock for the last year) And so well!!!!!!! Girl, way to go!
The textures on the balloon and the boat are great- really brings out the depth- they're really brought out as part of the picture, and they don't fall into the background. The colours are also really vibrant and fresh, which I think also portrays the "windiness" or the "airiness" well- 'tis a believable balloon!!!!
The shading and the shadows on the people are also very well done, and your line art, as always, is spectacular.
If I was to force myself to find a negative for the sake of a rounded critique, the only thing I could think of would be the...remains of something "furry" (?) in your characters. The hands, wrists and joining of torso to limbs have something canine to them- the angle of fingers and the way they splay may have something to do with it.
...Or it could just be my being used to anthros/animals....X_X
NEways- that's one damn fine piece of art! Good job!

Haha, I'm trying. xD They're challenging! And frustrating, at all times.
I'm glad the balloon is believable! :D
Thanks for the crit, too. <3 I never noticed that, but now that you mention it, I think you may be right! I shall definitely work on that. ^^ Thank you very much, Reim~

The bird is sososoososososososoosososososososososo cute. You should watch the faces though; balloon-boy and treehouse-girl look like they have the same facial structure, and since they're different genders they really shouldn't.

Nice going! You two just rammed into that bird!
A boat shaped hot air balloon sounds fun. Hmm... reminds me of the airships from Final Fantasy 6.

Good perspective and nicely colored. The foreshorting on the girl's right arm looks a bit off like the angle it is makes it look to short instead of depth. Like the bird's pose.

I appreciate the crit, too. I'll be sure to work on that foreshortening!
