Personally, I think the single best thing about this is that you captured the characters spot-on. I'm saying this from having written and created Isabelle. The mood is fantastic, and I think that the drawing summed up most of the storybook's mood and feel.

And Isabelle's dress looks fantastic, by the way. And the skull on her hat? Nice touch. Very nice.

And, because I have to keep commenting on how fantastically you did Isabelle, Isabelle's expression: Wow. Just, wow. That is SO Isabelle.

Great job!!!

Also, I think the smudges and crookedness make everything even better.

This is so wonderful, why would you even think for a second that you need to change a thing in this picture. There of course is always room for improvement in every piece no matter how awesome. What really bothers me about anything at all in this picture is that they seem so stiff. Especially Joshua. But what’s that when the Isabella’s dress is so astoundingly well drawn and perfectly detailed.

Also, I would definitely avoid adding anything else to the background. This is about the characters, not the setting. So too much will just be a distraction.

Best regards.

Hahah I love this so critic well I don't know. I will try though for art sake.

Unlike some of the others I like the smudge look of this it gives it personality.

The hands are fine, but the girl could use fingers, like lines on her hand.

The wings do look kinda stiff, so loosen them up a little.

Thats all I could ever find in something this beautiful. Keep up the good work!
My reality comes to a close as I once again realize that you don't love me, and even if I love you with my everything you will never care.
