take ur time

Do it slowly and if you make a mistake just go with it

very nice, i like that you made an almost full pic w background and all, very good. making her small enough to fit in the frame would be unneccesary here, so good call on design. the character has good posture and balance, were you looking at a picture? its a pretty high level posture and uve caught it spot on, the tension in the arms, the weight on the hip and hind leg..good. a quick effect for you? go into the layer w the girl, set your eraser at smallest and hardest, then scrath it back and forth all along her hair line real fine..this will create an effect of frizzy hair w individual strands of hair, and will take 5 seconds. Experiment! Also i cant really see if you put the trees on different layers. you should ofc..another trick for the 3d..always save the front layer for some smaller object if possible, it doesnwonders for the 3d..here, a flower, some grass, foilage, anything you could think of in the foreground would do...imagine you saw this scene as you peaked through vegetation..ok im sorry if thats a bit high level, but you seem interested in learning. NEXT LEVEL..learn to build ur characters from circles, boxes and sausages!! lol well, if u want more advice some day, drop by. Cheers, and keep up the good work. PRACTISE MAKES THE MASTER!

Try to do shadow and light effects. And please... Don´t draw the leaves of the trees like one big thing... Use more details.
