The line art reminds me of Dragonball Z it has a similar look to it.
The colouring is good but there are a few things that may look better if they were changed slightly.
The brown of her hair and the brown on the gun appears to be the same colour and tend to merge together, perhaps changing her hair colour slightly may help to make it stand out.
I like the way you've added some variation to the chest plate and the shoulder pads with the green but I think that the leg armour could use some of the same as it looks like it could be one piece of armour as opposed to two seperate pieces.
Hope that's some help.

Same comments as I had before at your office man.. I think It looks good. Actually the only critI would give is that you resized it too small to post here.. the tiny detail linework actually works against the pic and makes the colours look dirty.. post a link to the bigger version becasue I still think you've done an excellent color job..

keep it up....

oh and take the plunge... get the wacom..

Ok I changed the image size...now you can see all the flaws in the cg!(hehe) I also adjusted the color of the gun a little...it was a quick fix for comparison.

Yes, the Wacon is calling my name. This coloring stuff just takes too long!

Looks good so far, for still figuring it out.

Honestly I think the reason I don't like this piece is the clash of colors. It just seems hard to focus somewhere because .. well there's bright green here and there and yellow here and there and hard to decide what to look at. Perhaps get in more complimentary/similar colors.

Nice.. cool texture on the clothing, gun handle etc... colours and shading is good.

I was just wondering... why are the eyebrows over that blue headband or goggles thingy..

I s'pose it could just be the style of the pic, and I know you didnt do the linework, but it is just bugging me.

EviLToYLeT: I see what you mean, but I think that with the colours chosen, the saturation is well done. This seems to help the overall colour scheme. Like you said it may need some more work to fix the focus problem.
