looks good no doubt. Great vibrancy of the colors. But, I'm having a hard time reading the area behind the pirate and the bald headed peep
Maybe a little unsaturation at the back and gradient that to the front?

I like it! Really really nice style and colors. Only crit is that the red and blue and yellow feathers/paint are a little annoying, it gives it kind of a carnival feel that just doesn't agree with me. But the style is great and very nice job on the colors of the actual subjects.

Thanks for comments guys.
One thing I really want to point out is that the bright primary colors of the feathers and paint are done delibarately. The setting of that short story is that of a carnival party so I really wanted to put that aspect in the piece. Also, those bright scattered feathers are reminiscent to parades and marches that most dictators organize for themselves.
I do agree that the colors came out a bit too bright...If I ever want to print this one out I do have to fix this because most prints come out much brighter than the original.
