Cool

Always loved this look for her.

She looks nice but There are a few good and bad things standing out. A punch before a hug?
First of all, her hands, Her left hand looks very awkward. It looks like shes making a wired gesture with her hand rather than laying it on her hip.
Her right hand completely misses the sword. her fingers aren't wrapping around the sword as much as they are forming a fist independently.
her belt is kinda confusing since it's hard to make out if it's metal or fiber.the sword looks kinda disconnected behind the hair. the final bad note is that the lighting on her shield doesn't really make any sense.

On the upside the pose looks really nice and the expression is very readable and clear( and pretty awesome too). A lot of the armor is very clearly recognizable as metal and has a nice lighting on it. ( I like the backlight).

Thanks for reading this essay long review, Hope it helps. PS I would suggest using a midtone/grey background to draw on in order to bring out the highlights, shadows, and overall contrast. It is also much easier on the eyes in comparison to white.

Very nice, am admirin'.

The shadows are nice, if inconsistent. I kind of wish there was a background for her, but you didn't really draw this for anyone else but yourself now did you? :) Though you and I both know that there are litterally a million scenes you can draw for this, even her card ;but I digress, because the lines really take away from everything. That shield is just so distracting from everything else, even her beautifully done eyes. It urks me it really does to see what you could have made this. BUT! I think it has nice spirit, and a very consistent and smooth color. The nostalgia that is my childhood greatly appreciates this work, and if you actually give a damn what any random dude on the internet thinks, I think it shows promise. Well done sir.
