Flying High

My goodness. You sent up the me-signal again.

Theme? Yes. Costumes? Yes. These are all good things. I'm not really into the color scheme on the female's outfit - it seems kind of garish, but that's a personal taste thing. It also makes me think of Mulan, for some reason. Don't ask me to explain that one.

There's a few things that kind of made me ehhhh. The shading doesn't conform quite enough to the contours of the figures. Also, where exactly is it coming from? It seems consistent enough on the people, but not on the plane.

A downside to doing this sort of extreme closeup is that you don't get the sense that they are flying in the air. It seriously took me a moment to realize that they were in the air. Showing the entire plane - and the sky under it - would really aid in the I AM FLYING AND VERY EXHILARATED!! effect you seem to be going for. Their expressions serve this end well, but aren't enough on their own.

The boy's ear bothers me. Her ear is fine - I mean, even though you drew it like the inner ear goes into the middle of the cartilage, a lot of people won't notice it, I guess - but his ear is missing some kind of vital ear stuff. It's one thing to simplify an ear, but you've gotta simplify it sensibly.

Varying line widths might have helped to imply perspective. Lighter line weight on the girl, in particular. Especially on the wrinkles. (I still have that problem, too. I tend to give stuff much bolder line weights than it needs, and then I go back and smack myself later because I hahahahaaaate it.)

The clouds are nice, though they don't have a lot of depth. I find painting clouds to suck. I hates them.

I like that you were going for the sepia YE OLDE STEAMPUNKE TYME color scheme with the plane and the sky.
