This is the cover to a story my sister is making.
She wanted some constructive criticism, so i asked her if i could put it on AG and she thought it was a great idea. So here it is.

Thanks for reading.

So long as it does not link to anything that would be deemed offensive, then feel free to link to it.

Well, it is pretty hard to crit a story we can't read anyway, so please do put a link to it here.
As for the cover art, there are some anatomy issues (title figure's arms and hip, for example, some head shapes/mass as well), and the far background characters' shirt-colours kinda stand out.
But otherwise well done.
The title could probably have done with a different formatting, so that the 'head' doesn't float into the illustration, where it gets lost and overlooked.

theres a description about the story.
If theres a problem with it, id appreciate it if the moderators would just delete this post.
Thanks

@Cenere: My sister said thank you for the advice and she sees what she did wrong. She said she'll keep that in mind next time she draws something.

If she wants, I wouldn't mind doing a quick redline of the cover there, with some points on the "worst" of the issues.
Most of it can be glossed over as being style either way.

There we are.
I believe this should cover most of it, besides my rather crude attempt at doing some proper foreshortening.

At least it ought to give some anatomical clues, if not, she should probably just continue as she started out.
