*Critique comment coming throughhhh*

So then, overall you have improved and have things to improve. The pictures from last year (second post) look squashed and have varying levels of detail around the body, which makes it look half-finished. You have improved on this though, so it's not something to worry about as much anymore.
The lineart on some of the dragons is odd. For some you have used a soft brush to colour the inside, but then used a sharp brush to do the lineart. It looks jarring (at least it does to me), and it is better if you used either only soft brushes or sharp brushes. For example, this image here:
It has real nice lineart. The only critique I can really give this piece of art is that the gems look too sharp.
This drawing is also a good example of only using sharp brushes (well, pretty good). There are a few things you can improve on in this one, such as the underbelly of the dragon. It looks like you drew the lineart after you did the colouring, or that you forgot to do the underbelly. Also the ruff of this dragon is too realistic to go with the rest of the picture. It's good, but doesn't fit.
As for your most recent chibi dragon it looks nice. I like it. However, the proportions of the body look funny in some places. The hind legs have large flanks but small thighs and shins compared to it. The position of the forearms are either too far forward or you made the chest too small. It looks like the arms are connected to the neck. It's probably the latter as the chestplate looks like a neck-plate? The chest's too thin is what I'm trying to say.
Now for the people. Some of their faces are squashed, especially your fairy's face.
Her nose has no obvious bridge, and the mouth is too far up the face. The eyes are great, well done on them.
As for the legs of the fairy, they look broken. Sorry, but they do. The right leg shouldn't be bending like that, and the left leg's knee looks twisted. I think that you did this to show the ribbons of the shoe, which is fine, but try not to ruin the body's anatomy while doing so.
Sorry if I was a bit harsh in my critique, I'm just trying to show you what you need to improve. :3
Your art looks really nice! It's mainly body anatomy and proportions that you need to fix, but other than that it's great. Keep it up! I'll be sure to follow your progress.
Tell me if my wording was funny in my post, I forget how to english from time to time (even though my first language is english).
