A new challenger approaches

[Level 1]

Sorry for the double post.


I really want some critique on this one, a friend told me that she wanted to see me use a limited palette to create something, and this is the outcome. I am not really god with fire, so I used some references, I also want to try and animate this, so any tips on how to animate fire, would be very much appreciated

Also, I was fiddling around with a knight character.

I am trying to give it a unique look (nervous).

Edit
I forgot to show you guys this

This is part of a small project of mine, any critique here would be helpful, also, I could use some help with the trees, I am not entirely sure how to shade them, so any tips there would be helpful.
