Shadows on the people are too blurry & opaque. Check shadows of furniture.

HOME IS WHERE THE HEART GOES

CMYK46 says:

The two light sources on the horizon should match up...one is a reflection of the other. And shouldn't the dark squares have dark edges, and the light squares, light edges?

Check shadows. Light source on desert pic is from the left. Your light ray would cast a different shadow, skewed more to our left.

White fairy head is distorted and a bit large(Or maybe it's the neck), and it doesn't look like her hand is holding the wand. A much thinner wand might work better. Good effort over all.

The wood texture needs to conform to the contours of the face. Maybe try a displacement map.

Very proficient painting! The shadows are too opaque and a bit dark, and I would have placed them more to the right, judging from the highlights you created.

Tinkerbell - Look Out for the Wall

CMYK46 says:

Please check the source image. It's only the shade of the wall that makes it look like she's on a corner. (Author, not the best choice of sources because of that optical illusion...).

The petals look like they're only attached to half of the flower. Also, there are green smudges on the tips of the petals. Otherwise good work.

If the whale is supposed to be breaching through high clouds, I'd think about eliminating the water drops. He'd get pretty dry getting up there.

Where is it supposed to be? The shadow says it's on the wall, but the perspective says it's in front of the stone block...

Sources 2 & 3 are renders, and not useable.
5.6. 3D Renders or Illustrations as Source:
Using other people's 3D renders or illustrations (even with permission and no matter in which form they are offered) creates a false impression of your artwork. So 3D renders or illustrations can not be used as sources, unless they are entirely created by yourself. Only acceptable non-illustration brushes and clip art may be used, but you need to mention them as a source too. Don't use an image that has been altered by the source owner nor an entire work created by someone else.

The yellow boat isn't convincing, and with that strong light source both boats would have long shadows. Your idea is good.

Love your entry, but source 10 isn't a stock image. Use ONLY this URL when searching DA for images. http://www.deviantart.com/browse/all/resources/stockart/
Even then some authors place restrictions on useage.
I'm sure you can find a useable replacement.
