Wow!
I like it very much!

She's very sexy

I'm gonna nit-pick here:

-I'm concerned about her pelvis/shoulder link. They don't seem like they're in syncronized opposites. I know this term is totally wrong but allow me to illustrate this:
syncronized opposites 1
syncronized opposites 2

-I'm also thinking she might need more peachiness. But that totally is a matter of taste...

Quick Draw-over to illustrate my thoughts because it's late and I'm old..

Otherwise, very nice choice of colours, and I can feel a keen and assertive attitude, wanting to kick butt!

More please!

Love the colour! Very rich, and the quality of texture is impressive. There are some errors in perspective, it seems, unless of course these are on purpose? Good shading.. how did you get such a photographic quality on the hair?

Thanks a lot for the replies, the illustration was very helpful Swissy. The shading of hair is quite easy, just white with lower opacity multiple times. Strange perspective, I'm not totally sure what you mean, but might be result of flip and slight scaling of the scanned picture.

It is probably first time I've drawn person from that angle, that's kind of my new practice area, new poses, action shota and hands. (from this picture, hands are cleverly missing.)

PS. Do you guys use wacom?

Yeah, I use an old Wacom, A5 graphire 4x5.

Btw, it's a hard angle to draw characters in. But can be very gratifying to eventually make it happen. So keep at it ^^

Like people have said, there are some perspective errors, but that being said, the picture shows a genuine flair and a quite distinctive style.

Keep it going, Blackdove and post some more pics

Oh, and I like the pic enormously
