id try to add more of an expression on the face, or make the gesture more clear as to what hes doing.. I like the bookcases a lot, drawing that used to intimidate me, but i see the logic in it now :). I find in drawing facial expressions, i draw a super simple expression like a stick man, then try to morph the face into that simple expression. With yours, his eyes appear closed, but i cant tell what emotional state hes in. His arms in a crossed pose, maybe hes thinking, but i cant see it in his face.

Also, just like with the floating boy, dont be afraid to find a cool value pattern with that dappled light idk if thats the word, it really can add to a composition. The fairy is hard to read because of the chairs value behind her being so similar in color and value, sometimes ppl make a fairy very bright so its clear from far away what it is. Of course his collar is dark and can serve as a point of contrast.
