Love the color work - especially the scaled armor/clothes!
One suggestion, if you want it (if not, feel free to delete this unread): In future work, I'd suggest making sure you balance the sides when doing these slightly angled bodies. See how, judging by the angle of her collarbones, the breast on our left looks a little higher than the one on our right? It's also aimed more forward from her chest, rather than hanging slightly outward and downward in a more natural fashion like the one on our right. And the bodice cleavage is lopsided; the nipple on our left is partially revealed, while the one on our right looks to be several inches covered.
Turned bodies are an S.O.B. to draw; even some of the best comic artists like, say, Jim Lee still have problems with this. I'm still trying to find a good tutorial, drawn or photographic, for turned torsos and how to fit clothing to them, to recommend to people, but haven't found one yet.
The basics, though, involve mapping things to the body's own geometry rather than doing them by eye. And I say that not because I'm perfect but because I had to struggle with it way too much even before hand tremors wiped out my ability to draw.
And I could never have managed anything like the beauty of this piece - the contrasts of color and texture and sharpness that make the whole thing dynamic to our eyes, and the gorgeousness of every detail. So feel free to blow off my comment if you want; this is gorgeous!
