You know, you keep asking for advanced critiques, and then make it harder for us all by getting better! Once again, you've done some great work.
I can only complain about two things. First, the girl's hair looks lifeless and dead. I'm not entirely sure hwo to fix this though. More highlights on the light source might help, but as it stands it looks like either she's wearing a wig or has a bad dye job. The second is easier to fix. The ipod doesn't look like it's casting any light. There should be a bit more light on the little guy's head.
You're getting really good though man.

I love how you blend your colors to make everythig feel earthy yet extrodanarily otherworldly. You have great texture and color matching ability, frankly I'm jealous. The next step I would advise to you would be to try and really push yourself to make your artwork look literally real. (i.e. textre for skin pores and extreme lighting detail)

all of your art is gorgeous and makes me a little sad as well because you are my age! oh well, it gives me someone to inspire me :D

Also, i am curious, does the little man mean anything?

ok, the gyst of it is, the girl is marie, the dude is jake... they're the same couple i draw in these pictures [link] and really, jake is just a character that i made up a loooooong time ago, he represents me, so he's kinda quirky.

i'd like to do that (and i was thinking i should try to earlier this morning on this picture) but i have no idea how or where to start for that matter. i just figgured i'd figure it out eventually as a natural evolution of my skill.

That's how I am, and here I am giving you advice, when I myself can't even make that leap. But I would love to be able to see your art take on that next level of beauty.

Your art is truly stunning, I almost missed the little man holding the ipod

Very very very beautiful colors. Not a bad thing to say about this. It's quite wonderful.
