This is a solid effort. I like the atmosphere a lot and the reflections on the gun are mint. My main suggestion is to work on her facial expression a bit. Right now she has a sort of vacant look. If she's holding a gun she should look more serious, even angry or sneaky. Also, her left arm looks a tad stiff. I would turn the palm inwards are curl her fingers a bit more, and possibly bend the forearm back a bit. Good work, keep it up.

I agree with Kiera, but what a really good first image, love it

Kiera has most of it nailed. I'd also try roughing up the floor texture a bit. The floor looks like some kind of ridged metal right now, which would make it uneven and require a more open-leg stance if true. Also might wanna think about where she puts the gun when she's not about to use it, like a thigh holster (a band similar to a garter would prolly work) or a purse. Great work, wonderful mood with great work on the lighting and fog.

This is looking really great! I agree with Kiera's comments, but I think it is not just the face but the whole body pose itself that needs to be tweaked just a tad. Think what emotion she is feeling at the moment, and then try to express that in her expression and in how she holds (poses) her body.

Wow, that's a first? Congratulations! I agree with Kiera-- she does look a tad vacant. Also, on her own in the dark like that, I'd expect such a character to look a bit more furtive, crafty-- a slight expentant leaning forward in the shoulders, a cock of the head. This image would be helped with anti-aliasing turned on-- the subtleties of the environment are just broken by the jaggies! This is a very lovely piece-- I hope to see more.

To all, thanks for the kind words and constructive comments. I'll be continuing my work on her and repost the udated pic when finished. Thanks everyone.
