OMG!
This is your first attempt?!?!?!?! It's wonderful!!!!

A first attempt! Brilliant job.
The clouds look a bit bumpy. But I think its fine.

Maybe add the highlights to the black haired girl and experience with textures for the clothing.

I look forward to seeing more coloring from you! :D

Whoa... amazing.
I've made over 10 recolorings,
but it's still not as good as yours.
The eyes look a little... bizarre (just a tiny bit)
and the clouds' outlines look a little blurry.
