I think you've done a really great job--the shading is great, and I like the pose--the expression on her face is well done, and I love the abstract background...you'll have to wait until someone else posts to get any crits :P hehe--I like it all

Posting a reply mostly to keep this one alive. Because I like your pic.

At first glance i thought her left shoulder / arm was deformed, they seem to have no real definition. I think you need to define more throughly where shoulder muscles enter (arm would be tense enough to have a slight bicep bulge), but im asuming you were going for smooth skin, either way pose yourself in that position and look for the main shadows in the shoulders, the white towel is kind of odd looking too.

I like the hair too, and it looks like you went for a ba-haus abstract background which actually works well.

Whats with all the first posts? I've been watching this board for a few months (learned alot) but I think first posts should be more constructive than using everyone to critique an image.

perhaps the mouth is a bit too much up&right ? just a tad ? or perhaps she has a little bit too much jaw ? dunno.. it looks fine on the sketch.

I guess, you should add more shadow and contrast to her. more coulour anyways. The face looks like .... ah... just drew over it... maybe you see what I mean.

all in all it's a great pic. but also, her chest looks flat. not her b0obies ;D, but her chest. put some shades around the colar bone. oh yeah, and her eyes. as my art teacher told me. dont use a different color when defining things *such as black* use a darker shade. so for your eyes, make the shade a BIT darker, and i guess maybe put a very light shade of brown on it. (im just rambling, and i hope u understand what im trying to say)
