The art is simultaneously great and "eh." So much work has gone into detailing and backgrounds that look really nice, and the style strikes an appealing blend of realistic and cartoonish, but the underlying physicality, anatomical structure, perspective and posing of the characters just needs that little bit more practice and refinement. Still has that characteristic stiffness of someone who hasn't mastered the rules before breaking them yadda yadda. Studies with anatomical texts can be helpful (if that's not something you're already doing). Not that modern artists necessarily have the free time for stuff like that while trying to put bread on the table...
While I like the style I think some adjustment could be made specifically to the upper half of the faces to make them more appealing. And with regard to character's with large busts, paying special attention to portray the breasts weighted physical objects that deform and interact with forces rather than loosely attached airbags can be beneficial, unless that's your specific taste. I'm not saying make them saggy or anything but
Compare:
With something like:
I feel the later, while still rather ridiculously large and in a somewhat cartoonish style, has a much stronger sense of reality and physical presence.
Kind of got side tracked into a conversation about boobs at the end there and I didn't want that to be the focus... My main attention was drawn to the posing and proportions and positions of extremities. Anyway I feel the art is obviously good enough for the project as it exists, I'm just speaking in terms of eventual mastery, that's all.
