There's a certain sweetness to these, Dinesh - Anastasia particularly. They're childlike with inherent charm. That said, I'd like to see more actual DESIGN - for example, all your buildings in all your cities look the same - but the descriptions in Calvino's chapters suggest that the architecture in each city would be very different - different shapes, different materials, different moods. For example, you've drawn Argia (79) as a rather lovely place, with trees and grass - but isn't Argia buried underground, with no daylight or sky, the streets clogged with mud? I think you need to think much more about how and why your cities are looking the way they are...
