You did that without looking at a reference? Wow! That's amazing! As for Inu Yasha's haori (that's his red 'jacket' part of his outfit. He doesn't wear a hakama-- a hakama looks like a skirt, but is actually VERY baggy pants. Kenshin from Rurouni Kenshin wears a hakama), the error in style is barely noticeable, so don't worry about it. As for Kagome's face, I really don't see anything wrong at all. She doesn't normally do the "kitsune smile" but that's ok---she still looks very much like she should. The beads of Inu Yasha's rosary are supposed to purple rather than black, but again, I'm not going to nitpick that as a terrible error. Marvelous job! Very cute! I love it!

HI! Cute picture! I am sorry... but I can't remember if I have seen this one or not... but I can see that I haven't left a comment yet so here I go!!!

I love their expressions for one thing. They both looks so cute! I think this is an excellent drawing for your first time... and without even looking at a reference. (I must admit I am not very good at doing that. ^^; So you get extra points for that one.)

I also really like where you put the shadows and the shines. :) At first glance you tend to pass over the shadows and their placement... but when you take more time to look... it's really artistic the way to colored it. (Very awesome basically). For example... Kagome's hair... the shines in it look so cool. (I have a hard time with shines. ^^;) And as for an example with shadows... Inu Yasha's left shoulder and Kagome's left leg are very well shadowed (especially around her knee, nice work!).

Oh wow... I talked more than I shoudl have I think... well anyway. I think this picture is really great and like I said before, extremely cute. Nice work. :-D I can't wait to see your new art.
