I've seen some of your previous works, and you execute lighting and shading here as well as you have in all of them! detailing is also good: I like the tattoos, as well as the jewellery and the dragon-like pattern in the background. I have yet to do shading as well as you have, especially with pencil, but hopefully I will be able to in future.
the character's expression is also well-done. you pull off the stern character well with the narrowed eyes, tight jaw and clenched fists: the eyes are particularly striking, and of course this ties back into the lighting and how that was pulled off well in its own right.
if I am to give anything in the way of critique, I think the jawline and ear could be moved slightly to the left: this way the jaw hinges onto the side of the neck, as it does, and further from the back. (that probably doesn't explain very much, so here 's a link to a better demonstration.) if you're interested, I generally use the Reilly method as an anatomy guide for the head: this Youtube video explains the method quite well, and a quick image search for "Reilly method" shows how it applies to heads at different angles and with different proportions. there are a number of others, but this is the one I've used for a while.
anyhow: anatomical nitpicking aside, this is a neat piece! hope to see more from you in future, and keep it up :]

Thanks a bunch for the nice critique! Especially redlining the head was a very helpful advice!

Hi, I'm Shirkee from and I'm amazed by your skills!
I spend a quite some time to find positive and negative things in your picture and while I can say a lot about the first, I had hardships to find the second. I love the idea of the character - strong, confident female warrior and what is more !not! in the bikini armor 
I love how you designed the ornaments and how you could keep them clear, not merging/mess with each other. I always have problem with it!
Anyway I'm looking forward for your new drawings

Hello Shirkee, thank you very much for your comment. I really like the pictures you've mentioned, they look so crisp and refined. The darkest pencil I use is 4B, I use it for countours and the darkest (i.e. black) places. Other than that, I will keep in mind what you said

I love the design in the background. I'm a suckle for "tribal" designs.

Hello I found your artwork through Project Comment
This character definitely looks like a badass barbarian warrior which I love. For example the way she standing and looking directly into your soul and crossing her arms makes it so no man ever wants to cross paths with her again. The tattoos man they are beautiful very clean and having it cover both of her arms makes look imitating.
The clothing is very good choices, since she doesn't have much armor on I feel like it makes her look confident for example she doesn't need a whole armor to protect herself which can tell a lot about her skills in battle. the tooths around her necklace could at like trophy from the monsters she's faced and won.Β
Overall its a very good piece and highly detailed, good shading, beautiful character design <3

I really like the many ornaments in this work of yours
I think you also did a quite good job with the anatomy and shading here!

I don't feel up to writing a critique right now, but what a piece it is. I love the amount of detail you put in there. I'm very impressed by how you did the tribal tatoos, I always mess those up.
