I want to give you a critique, but I don't have a premium account. I guess I'll just do it here~
Other than a nitpicky anatomical error ( the chest is very low down, unless her neck is very long, this strikes me as awkward ) this is piece is technically very good.
The line work is easy, however I feel that the few bright colors in this piece seem poorly chosen. What is the intention of drawing attention to the hammer and chain? These colors overshadow the brightness of the eyes, which would be a more fitting center of interest, in my opinion.
My main critique is the intent of the image. I know that this is a reference picture, but since you asked for critique I assume you are interested in what might improve it from an artistic standpoint. The image itself is lifeless. Technically well executed, it seems only to illustrate an idea, not convey any thought or emotion. If this was not your intent, then disregard this, but it seems to me that the piece would be greatly improved by motivation. Why not try a little harder on the concept, even if it is just a reference? It would give the character more meaning, more power, and I believe create a piece that you are proud of creatively and not just technically. On the whole, it seems very safe. You are clearly able to make images like this. I'd be interested to see what you do when you let go of the idea of making something look good and try to make something that feels.
I don't mean to over critique this, I think that if your intent was to show how your character looks, the goal was accomplished. I just want to be able to tell how the character feels.
Hehe... I don't critique very much, I hope this was helpful. I have admired your work for awhile.

Thank you!
Yes, it was a basic profile piece, so i wasn't trying to get anything emotionally, just an idea. You're correct. I worked on it as a final design for her concept. I have sketched out more "meaningful" pieces of her that I plan on finishing sometime soon
Yea, i had problems with the colours actually. I am planning on editing since now i've received good critique from both you and my boyfriend {:
Thank you so much!

No problem! Yeah I figured you weren't going for anything really too emotional, but I thought I'd throw that in anyway. Just in case. I look forward to seeing more of your work!
