Hello there! Great work so far! Just a few points that I think could help improve the illustration. First of all: Try not to crop the hand this way. In general, it’s best to avoid cutting off extremities awkwardly. For example: If you’re showing part of the hand, it’s usually better to show the full hand. If the composition cuts near the elbow, it’s better to include part of the forearm rather than cutting directly at the joint. Because of this, I made the character slightly smaller so there would be enough room to include the full hand, the ice cream container, and more space for the table On another note, the image feels very saturated, which creates a bit of visual noise. Even though this style is often characterized by vibrant colors, I’d still recommend controlling saturation levels more carefully. In this case, since the character is the focal point, you could desaturate the background slightly to create: Better contrast, clearer visual hierarchy and more visual rest for the viewer Additionally: Since you’ve already established some shadows, consider extending that shadow treatment across the rest of the character. For example, upper areas of the face, fingers, and so on. These are relatively small adjustments, but they could significantly strengthen the illustration. Hope this helps!
