Description Looks like something is about to go down. he's all fired up. On the other hand, she thought it would have been a great idea to try on an alternative outfit (Cosplaying^^)
Now we just got to wait for this damn loading screen :c.
But who are these two fighting today?
(EDIT: I did a little editing with the skin to make it look smoother, and what not.)

I'm sensing subliminal messages that you are inviting people to make possibly the most epic video game since...an epic game.... on the epic console.... Of course you'd be a concept and final character designer.
Darn, now I really want to play this game...

Anyway, great job as always. Keep up the great work.

I'm sorry, but I can't help but hear the pokemon battle music. XD

So this is a pretty good piece, but I see some flaws, most of them on Aeris. For instance, that elbow thing seems out of place, like it was kinda put in there for no reason other than to look cool. Certainly, it could, but circular isn't the most intimidating angle for a weapon to be. Her jacket and shirt seem unfinished. By this, I mean where everything begins and ends. It's like she's wearing a white tanktop with black sides (which if it is, then I take it back, that's a pretty cool outfit!), but otherwise clashes with her breasts to make them look like they're actually folding the shirt into itself. The hips seem just a tad off angle in comparison to leg positions and her whole pose doesn't tell me that she's jumping into action like the guy is. Her pose says "falconer" and "check out these forearms," in my opinion.

Otherwise, this is a really good work! You really nailed the guy's body and expression (I forgot his name, I apologize). His body is twisted with an arm in front and another warming up a strong punch, his eyes looking straight into the frame to make eye contact with the opponent, legs balanced and braced for combat. I like the slight arch in his back and the casual readiness of his exposed hand, very realistic. His clothes, while plain, are textured well, compared to the girls' where they look like a part of her skin rather than clothes. Also liking the eye shadow under his left eye, a good touch.

My final word: Good work on male figure and expression, now practice on the female expression. You have her figure down and I can tell you know how to illustrate correct expressions, but it seems as if you were concentrating more on what her clothes were doing rather than the girl herself. I assume she is cosplaying Tifa, so a good start would be to mimic a battle pose from Final Fantasy 7. Another idea is to copy the guy's pose and expression onto her, then get her cosplay clothes to fit with her stance. When I put two characters into a fight scene, I know that a team should look like they have each other's backs and duelling characters should be reacting to each others' movements. In this case, the guy is pumped and ready to knock heads. Have the girl looking at the same point he is looking and give a similar stance to express her reaction and readiness (if ready at all) to the situation. Who is she fighting, you ask; whomever it is, is she ready and getting pumped like the guy or does she react differently?

That is my critique. I would have pushed that little button there, but i need a paid account to do it. I hope this helps. ^^

Thank you very much, but for her expression, she would be more of the peppy happy fighter who wouldn't really look focused but actually is. But anyways thank you,^^

Ahh, looks awesome. ^^ You've certainly been improving in a lot of things for your drawings. I think this one is a great example to show how much. You've gotten really good at the shading and making the poses look better, including the hands.

Oh and superbly awesome btw.
