Mighty Ducks! Haven't watched that in a long time. : )
I like what you did with her here. I like her pose, in that it has a good sense of dynamism and energy to it. And I like how that's reinforced by the sense of energy the highlights gives, particularly on her bend leg, since it seems to follow and carry the movement of the leg through even more. Also, her hair has this great feel to it; the shapes and the coloring of it has this great sense of energy, too. And I just love how it looks; there's a great sense of flow and a great sense of volume to it.
I like her expression a lot. I like how her figure is posed in this confident, kung-fu kinda pose, but there's a bit of uncertainty in her eyes, like she's practicing her moves but looking over to someone to make sure she's got everything down right. Which might be me reading something completely wrong into it, but I liked how her expression was lively and engaging and made me imagine a scenario behind the expression. At any rate, I love her eyes, and I love how you gave her face a great sense of depth, and used color to sculpt out the shapes and planes of her face. That added dimension to her face, and the lifelike sense of volume all throughout her figure makes that pic even more interesting and polished.
If you don't mind me critiquing a little, I think the weakest elements are her left hand and her right breast, because they both feel a little flatter than everything else in the pic, a little bit out of sync with how the rest of her figure is posed. Like, most of her body faces forward and to the right (from the viewer's perspective) but her right breast feels flatter and as such ends up facing further towards the left, and looks a little off from everything else. And maybe the issue with her hand is her thumb and index finger feel like they're a little cramped, caught with too little space between her chest and the rest of her hand, and like they've been squished a bit to fit in that space, which makes the hand feel a little squished or flat as a whole.
...I hope I'm not out of place critiquing that much on a "random doodle." I apologize if the critique was unwelcome.
BUT! Those critiques are minor anyway, because I think this looks great! I love the energy in her pose, I love her eyes and her expression, and I love the shapes of her figure and how you fleshed them out in a lifelike way. Great job. : )
