The colouring of this piece is natural yet bold, and I love the sense of space it has; that city in the background looks huge because of the texturing of it, and this building they're standing on really looks like it's soaring above it (though it looks sort of far away from the other buildings; maybe that suggests a sense of journey). The sky doesn't have a lot of definition, but it's not really the focus of the piece.

As for the characters, their designs are excellent and subdued; cool and urban. They stand out in the picture, but not with heavy inking or any conventional technique: their darker, stronger colours and the detailed, stylish folds of their clothes make them really pop out. I like the front character's attitude, looking stoically over the city, silently considering all the opportunities and adventure that await there. The way the building is tilted slightly downward seems sort of like it's encouraging him to go out there and find some adventure.

The second character, standing further back from the edge, also gives the picture a different mood: rather than just the main character, a lone figure over the city, it seems like he has a friend who is also thinking about what's down in the city. Maybe he'll get in some adventures with him? His pose, and his standing behind the other character, suggests he's more laid-back about the idea, and is willing to follow the main character to whatever adventure he might find.

The design on the bird thing is cool: it looks almost art-deco, but also sort of horrifying, with its beady eyes and bony beak. It suggests that the city could have a bit of a dark side.
