Not too shabby. The pose is nice, and it's obvious who you're drawing without having to look at the character's name, which is always a good thing.

I would work on your anatomy some; grab pictures off the web with poses similar to the one you want to draw so you can see how the various body parts are shaped and fit together. Mostly her arms seems a little too slender to me. And then try a bit of shading (which I admit isn't easy! I don't consider myself to be great at it yet.) to help give the figure some depth.

Still not a bad effort at all.

The actual piece looks hawt, believe it or not, the shading is awesome, but I guess my scanner isn't good enough to pick it up...

Thanks for the feedback

Scanners are evil for picking up the subtleties of colored pencils. It drives me insane. I always tweak levels and such in Photoshop, but it never looks as good as in person =/
