I like it a lot!! 
Great.
If you mind a comment, I think the tone of her skin on her face is different than in the rest of the body... it looks like she has been sunbathing 
Also her head is a bit tilted, but that may have been on purpose.

Nice. Do I detect a little Sargeant influence?

Thank you all for your comments!
Ragnarok: Yeah, I wanted her skin to have a different tone or "temperature" in different places. I think it looks pretty =) (notice the tone of the boobs, quite cooler than the rest of the body)
Inspector Lee: I don't know who Sargeant is... someone around here?
Conor O Kane: I'm really glad you like the background light! It's the thing I worked least on, but I think it works. It's a portrait after all!
Cheers,
Mon

-John Singer Sargeant. Famous painter. You should check him out, you have a very similar way with the brush, especially in the way you're rendering the clothing.

Gurls tend to use a lot of powder in teh process of doing their make-up, dun they? Thus teh face would most likely look mo pale than teh rest of teh body, rite? Wuteva, dis be some tasty $hit.

Inspector Lee: I checked out this Sargent guy, he really had his shit together. Reminds me of Zorn or an early Carl Larsson. Thanks for the tip!
[666]Flat: Makeup, well... nah. =)
Cheers,
Mon
