Just got done playing Gravity Rush and was looking to see if there were any good cosplays out there.

You two absolutely nailed it! The level of detail and accuracy on the costumes is impressive, and you both embody the characters so well. You've brought the characters to life in a way I didn't think was possible. I honestly think it would be hard for somebody to do a better Gravity Rush cosplay than you've done here.

No problem! :)
As far as drawing people in perspective, I think you were very successful at that specifically. You definitely accomplished what you set out to do there, I'd say.
The person is drawn at the proper angle, for sure.

Hmm, alright, let's start this off by looking at your...

Vision:
I'm really kind of unsure what the vision here was supposed to be. The image is just kind of confusing, and it doesn't say much to the viewer.

Originality:
Uh, well... this is definitely somewhat original, just by how odd it is... but it's also not something completely new that I haven't seen before.

Technique:
Well, I'm really liking the consistency of the colors being used, all of the colors have a similar desaturated tone to them, and they all mesh together very nicely.
I'm also loving the textures you've used in places, and the shading & reflections on the blue structure look really nice.

My favorite part is the style of the linework that you used on the character. She's approaching a cartoony style, but is not quite that simplified. She has a lifelike look, while also keeping that simplistic feel. It's a nice style.

However, the lines you used for the background seems

The shading is nicely done, but it feels inconsistent. Some elements seem to have shadows while others appear to be fully-lit. For example, you can see all of the shadows being cast on the girl, however, she's not casting any shadows on the sidewalk, and neither is the large blue structure. It kind of make these things seem detached from the rest of the image, instead of them all existing in the same place. Perhaps you should try studying how shadows are cast in some photography, or in real life, and try to adapt that into your art style.

Your use of perspective unfortunately leaves a lot to be desired. A few things I noticed... the sidewalk near the water on the left side of the image appears to be tilted at an odd angle. The same can be said for the building on the right side of the image. Also, all of the lines are uniform, which makes the entire background feel a lot flatter than it should feel. Perhaps you should try making the lines get gradually thicker as they get closer to the foreground, and thinner and thinner as they go into the background.

Also, I'm not sure what is going on near the horizon line... the ground turns into the sky, and the dirt road goes off into the distance? That whole area of the image is just... very confusing.

Impact:
While the design of the character leaves a very good impression on me, and the shading & reflections on the blue structure look really cool, the rest of the image suffers a bit, and just ends up looking a bit amateurish.
