At fist I just had the silohuetes, for some reason I decided to draw over it...not if if I like this more than what it was before, I may switch it out :P
You've got a good style you're trying here. With some work this'll be a good illustration.
So, because I see potential here... big long crit:
First/foremost you need to slow down. Plan out your composition, figure out which color combos will make your focal points stand out more & definitely dig up some reference.
I'd do a bunch of thumbnails of the girl & bunny to get the pose that'll best get your point across. Use photos (or a fellow artist) to check your anatomy... it's a great excuse to buy nudie magazines. Remember to take your time with it. If you get a pose you like, sit on it for a day & come back to it later to double check (that's what I do, it really helps alot). *Also look at your drawing in a mirror. Seeing it backwards will help you to easily see the flaws.
Once you get the proper posing, arrange them on your canvas where they'll look best, lay down your general color scheme & make your background work to make the characters pop more. The black on dark purple isn't working too well. Maybe try some lighter pinks & violets on your characters & do what you can to make the buildings contrast from the sky (maybe more "sunset-ish" colors in the sky). The buildings need more depth, so first I'd arrange them to compliment the characters best & to add depth, add some street elements (trashcans, lamp-posts, etc), then maybe add some lighter/smaller buildings in the distance. That oughtta help w/ the depth.
Anyway, that's my crit. Hope it helps. You should take another stab at this & see what you can do w/ it. I'd like to see it polished.
Thanks dude. Yeah, I'd definately like to revist this.
I spent pretty much all the time just getting her figure and style where I wanted it and just kind of threw everything else in without really thinking about it.
Something tells me she wouldn't be pointing at the bunny and giving the "come here" motion at the same time. That's the main thing that stuck out in my mind. I think if you made it with just the "c'mere" it would make her seem more alluring.
I agree w/ Dustin. She's got kindof a "Hey bunny, get over here" thing going on. Doesn't quite work. I think a "Flirty Glance" look on her face would be more effective.
