    They're so cute ^^ Zack looks perfect but Cloud looks a bit out of shape I think you should make his neck a bit longer it looks like his head is just sitting on the scarf but the rest looks fine great job.​

    Daaaaaaaaaaw, SOLDIER buddies! ^^

    Now that's just adorable. Especially Zack turned out pretty good, forever the optimist. <3

    Well, as cute as your chibis are, there's still some minor issues regarding propotions of the body. MINOR ones, mind you. Even when you work in this style, it's important to remember the joints of the body. When going as detailed as this, it might be a good idea to add the joints as well when drawing arms and legs. The final lineart can look more simple, but when you sketch don't be affraid to add orbs for the spots where the joints would me. It will help to keep the propotions under control, for example on Cloud - his arms ended up being longer than his legs. And one of the arms has the bend starting too late, you know?

    Nice and simple colour work. :3 When you have played around with the markers enough to know it's limits, try to go even further when you shade. Maybe try a "two layer shadow" instead of just one, along with leaving some areas to stay as highlights. Maybe even add extra colours in some areas to give the feeling of shape more realisticly. But take your time to figure those things out. :>

    Cute!~

    Only one problem that I see.

    Zack legs look funny. Maybe make them thicker or something

    Awww. They look cute! I really like how Zack is leaning against his sword and Cloud is with him. It's like they both are best friends forever. I really don't see that much flaws so good job!

    I love all the detail you did, and I adore the hair!
    It's really... really cute, but I feel like there should be more detail in the clothing... but that's just me. xDD

    Thanks for the CnC guys it helps. I used Prismacolor art markers. I really would like to work more on shading and highlighting. And proportions. ^^' I just need to not rush so much when drawing and coloring lol. But thanks again!
