- I'm finding the title hard to spot. It should jump off the cover/poster.
- The background building could use softer edges to push it back away from the focal point. Right now it feels like it's competing for attention.
- Look at some female arm reference (or yourself in the mirror) to push the arms to the next level of refinement. They're coming off as very cartoony without much anatomical structure - a stark contrast to her face.
- The tree on the right needs form. It's reading like a cardboard cut-out. I'd lose the thin brush strokes you've drawn on it and focus on big soft shapes.
- Overall you could hit a lot of areas with big soft brushes to lose the thin brush strokes. That kind of micro detail (hair and fur, or value scribbles) should be reserved for focal points and diminish in frequency and contrast as you move away from that point.
Hope you find that helpful. You're almost there, keep pushing!
