Im not good with critique, but one major thing i personally avoid unless its intentional is using a pure black, it blends into the linart. Using a dark gray separates it from the outlines. As for the pants, the blue is really dark and without any highlights/shadows, it also blends into the outline too. It might be fine, but i would choose a slightly lighter blue.
As you develop you should also learn shading and highlighting techniques, as unless you are a master of color theory, lighting is one of the best ways to make something stand out.
I guess the last thing ill say is,most of the background is that dark red. Too me thats too much space not being used, i dont know what you could add, but thats just my opinion.
Laura's Gifts

So, a little background to this scene (I reaaly need to set up a solid story outline) The "Omnipotents" are a group of people that Archon associated without letting his company and others know about said people. One of those people are one of the female characters that I haven't decided on a design for, and these dolls given to Laura and Archon that are sentient and linked to the person that they look like through a psychic link (or something along those lines .) Which is why when Laura starts to choke the doll, she's essentially choking Archon... and the Laura doll's mad because she doesn't like seeing the Archon doll being hurt.
Anyway, I'd started working on this piece as well as my Charlotte sketch before getting critic from Undeadkitty13, ZeTrystan, and TheGrinningApple (Btw, if you're reading this go check them out, amazing artists and I'm so happy they actually took the time to give me critic) So aside from the coming up Charlotte sketch, I'll be trying to add more life to my drawings, by working on giving life to their poses, try to be creative with color choices, and I'll try to get an art anatomy book asap (Because BOY do I need it!)
Anyways, enough rambling, thank you for viewing my art!
