Silent Envy

What's everyone think?  I hope the wait's been worth it.  This has come a long way from what I was original envisioning and the original drawing.  Thanks to everyone who helped along the way!  Something a friend kept saying was that it was hard to convey envy without something or someone to be envious at.

I'm hoping from here on out my art continues to improve and I reach out more during production.  I may think of other comments to add later.

Is the frost too much?
