The composition is quite nice, very interesting idea. I would move the position of kids heads a litte bit higher ( I enerally go with my gut when it comes to composition, but You can apply the rule of thirds - their eyes would be placed on the bottom horizontal line and the intersections would be in the very centre of their heads).

I'm very impressed by how You implemented colors. Values are olso quite good, the only piece of advice I could give would be to darken a little the space in between rocks and boxes (or whatever that is). But just a little.

Keep it up, and good luck with it!

By the way, are You aiming at Pixar, Dreamworks or something of that sort for your professional career? You deffinitely have the potential in that area.

Also, do You by any chance provide livestreams?
