Ooh, that's cute! I like it. Just some mild suggestions... maybe keep an eye on where your heads end and begin, the ear looks slightly funny because the head ends at the base of the ear instead of continuing behind it. Also, since the head is turned to look 3/4 right, I suggest trying to tilt your guy's body to match that, since in the picture it's facing directly to the front.
how did you manage to get the folds in the clothes so perfect what in Sornieth's name

@Catradora Thank you so much! The head is long on purpose because this is a humanoid character. I really should have raised the eyes more to show it. Again, thank you.

HI, @crowscales
I'm going to critique as best as I can.
First things first, I really like the character design, :0 They look pretty cool and look ready to go on an adventure. The energy around them is great and your line art is really smooth, I really like that too!
Okay, now to state what you could work on.
First, There is no focused light. The head seems to have different lighting then the rest of the body. the light that is hitting the head seems to be coming from behind to the left, but the light hitting the body is coming from the direct front.
Remember shadows are created by something blocking the light source.
here are some examples
When in doubt use basic shapes like a cube or a sphere to figure out where and how the light hits the figure in the drawing.
[b]Example:[/b]

Next the face, Now I'm not sure the direction you where going for but I can tell he isn't 100% human so I'm going to leave the back of the head and ears alone. You would probably get a better idea of how to work with those by looking at human and animal anatomy. I think you know what you want to look for.
Now the I am going to talk about the face and the neck,
the face is in a 3/4 position but looks flat, when in the position the cheek protrudes a bit making a small lump
[b]Example:[/b]

I would also make the neck slightly thicker in the back, as it looks as if its not going to be able to hold the weight of head.
EXAMPLE:

last thing instead of ending the nose where you ended it have it curve to the eye thats farthest way like so
EXAMPLE:

the reason being is because when we look at the face there is a curve the starts at the tip of the nose and the end of the eye brow.

Sorry its so long, but hopefully its informative.
I hope that this helped.

@Jadedragonii Thank you so much for the critique! I'll probably practice with him again soon with this wisdom bestowed upon me.

@crowscales You're welcome! I can't wait to see what you do!

@JadeDragonii Come to think of it, it might be a while until I can draw anything digitally again because I'll be at a relative's house for a few days, and she really doesn't have the setup for my digital equipment.
