A few weeks/months ago I posted the sketch about this picture...

Didn't make the corrections because my tablet broke...but last night it was working for a few hours, enough to make another lineart and the coloring sweatdrop

Since you already commented on the composition and/or anatomy, comment on the coloring? lol

Oh! by the way, here's the sketch:

That's very nice and well done. The only thing I don't like is the hair colours you chose. What you chose for Kenichi almost makes it look like he has black hair, and Miu's hair colours look sorta "muddy". I'd use orange for the shading instead of green.

First of all, its really nice whee . The shading, the places where the shadow and light falls are correct and the background suits the pic well. And I really like they're skin *thumbs up on that*

I couldn't complain anything about the coloring(other than what Zantetskin said, which I couldn't really confirm since I've only watched the series once, but i do agree that its a bit green-ish, but its not that obvious to me), overall, its 9.5/10 for the whole picture.

Why 9.5 and not 10? its because of Kenichi's head (or hair rather) the placement is a bit awkward at the top, i bet if you invert the pic vertically, you'll see what i mean (or maybe its just me xD)
I know its not about coloring but i just have to point it out, sorry.

but overall, it really is great!!! do you have any coloring tuts?

Thanks!
About the hair....I could never tell if it was black or brown (didn't watch the anime) so I just went with the guessing it was all black sweatdrop

For Miu's hair...actually is because of the filter I used at the end...I intended it to give it a more "monotone" look, but sacrificed her hair color lol
