This is indeed beautiful and very romantic 1 That being said, I do have one teeny weeny little bit of advice. I personally found the snow flakes a bit too sharp. Maybe a fluffier brush and a little less opaqueness would make the snow softer. That way it would fit better with the dreamlike qualities of the picture. But hey, like I said, it’s only my opinion 2

:-) Sky van Niekerk replies: "I was drawing the kind of snow that was falling here that day^^ grainsnowlike flakes. For the next one I can try the big softer ones again. thnx for the advise! 1"

Very nicely done, especially with this being your first colored pic for anime and not having done very much anime artwork! Excellent!

:-) Sky van Niekerk replies: "No I havent’t... I’m still a bit affraid I put too much detail in for an anime... But I’m not sure, I like it this way 2"
