I drew this inspired by the cattarpillar in Alice in Wonderland. My first non-doodle with Prismacolors, also. I plan on drawing a better version, which is why I didn't do a background. I want critique for when I draw that one, such as a better pose or something? Anatomy? Suggestions?
If you give me critique for coloring keep in mind I didn't try as hard on the stump/smoke but I'm still new to Prismacolors.

I think it's fantastic as it is. A background will only improve it, but I don't think you have to change the character at all.
This is really good and is quite an interesting picture. It seems a bit blured though and hard to see the outlines. It looks like it's done in pencil? Which I don't consider a very good media to use as it's hard to blend colours and get lighting looking correct. Perhaps you should use a different media or try digital art. You should create an art thread and post some more of your stuff :D

I think that's your opinion though, I like using colored pencils. http://finalfantasyeva.deviantart.com/ar t/Janemarieburnley19-97208299 This was done with colored pencils yet looks realistic with good blending. And I don't know what you mean by hard to see the outlines.. there are no outlines like a cartoon. Thanks though :)
Keep in mind my scanner sucks and it does look more blended in real life >.>
Elephants don't have mouths there.
Unless it was intended for the hookah to be stuck in the elephant through a slit, it's in the wrong place.
I ran. I ran until my muscles burned, and my veins pumped battery acid. Then I ran some more.

I originally meant to make it look like the mouth was coming up from under the tusk, but apparantly got side tracked when coloring. That happens alot, making stupid mistakes. Oh well.
Wow very impressive.
I love the color but the pose aswell very nice indeed, it has a unique style to it verywelldone, keep up the good work
