Hello! Here's your requested critique from #CritiCentrum :)

Negatives
- Both her hands and feet are a little small, especially her feet. This is a mistake a lot of people do, because hands and feet are actually longer than you'd think- until you notice they really are pretty big! Hands should be able to, when fingers spred, cover up a face. In Manga/Anime the face is bigger than in reality so they won't have to be THAT big, but some bigger than this ;) Feet are as long as your lower arm. So in this case, they need to be about twice as long ;)
- In proportion to the palm of her hand, the fingers could be a little longer too
- For the coloration, I see some really nice shades in the dress and that's really good ^^ But especially the hair and the skin could use some darker shades. Darker shades give a drawing a more 3D-feeling and mostly look prettier too. Of course after a while you can't color any darker with coloring pencils anymore, I've experienced that myself many times too. So if you want to have even darker shades, use another coloring pencil! For example, for skin you can easily use red to do the really dark shades ^^ I've done this with the skin in my icon too (; (be carefull tho: Especially when using red on skin, start coloring veeeery lightly because it can easily become too red. And also blend it into the skin with skin color itself too)

Positives
- The pose is fitting for a fairy and drawn quite well too ^^
- Her design is really cute, I love the leaves in her hair and how her ponytail covers one shoulder <3 And how her skirt looks like leaves too ^^
- Overall this drawing is really cute, I'm sure your friend was happy with this! :D

So to say it shortly, this is a really cute and well drawn drawing, but the proportions are a bit off, and it could use some more darker shades ;)
I hope this was helpfull, and thank you for submitting to #CritiCentrum!
