Description
The blade is scarred from battles past. The finish matte, to better dull the glint of a sharp light. It comes directly at you at a gut wrenching velocity. The tip is slightly elevated, a fact you almost miss as your eyes focus on the reflection off the cross. You reflexively contract muscles in your arm and chest, moving to block this other, now more deadly, trajectory. But The Truth Sword provides a profound lever arm, its balanced, hollow blade possessing seemingly no inertia. A mere wrist flick - well, in truth, wrist/forearm/shoulder/collar flick with a health dose of torso momentum, moves the tip of the blade literally a full hand down. Well below your blocking sword, just below your helm, exactly, precisely...

lOVE THE POSE!

Great rendering in shadow of right breast--you can tell it's a gland or fleshy part, not just a "picture of a breast." Pose is interesting, but the kinesiology is a little over the edge. For her right arm to swing that sword at that angle, if her legs were spread that far, and her right leg was rotated with her heel at that angle--she'd fall right on her face. Pretty for grace, but a little too extravagant for believability. I'd suggest assuming the pose yourself, and probably bend the knee and rebalance the heel on the right leg. Otherwise, she would teeter to the right, lose her balance, and her legs are spread too far for her to keep from collapsing (not graceful). Adjust that, and maybe a little more flexed jaw or tense lips, and I'd vote excellent.

Teleo: You may be right about the state of balance in this pose, but I think you are neglecting the dynamics of the situation. This is a lunge - she is landing on her right foot, using it to stop and thrust from. Lots of things are possible in motion that won't work in a static pose. I think it does work.
