I can already see all of my mistakes, so if you feel the need to point them out, at least suggest how to fix them
Feel free to comment here or, preferably, on the uploads themselves

I'll do the best I can. I'm still trying to push past my lesser coloring skills, so this is good practice for me too
1. The dress is way too bright. I'm not a fan of the gradient either: they look too flat most of the time. A remedy for this would be contemplating a color palate that works around your light in the entire drawing.
2. I do not like the lipstick shade. It stands out way too much as opposed to the warm-palette reds in the pic. Change the lips to a warmer looking shade of blue, or a colder looking shade of red.
3. I don't like the bright stuff on her wings. I feel that if you had spent time outlining and shading in the wing bones instead it would be better. If you are determined to have it, try to make it more veiny or hieroglyphic instead; it looks more like artificial wings rather than demon wings.
4.Proportionally its fairly ok, sans some definitive refinement issues. (The general flatness and unfluid pose- particularly around the limbs.) However you would benefit greatly from attempting more dynamic figure drawing.
Take it from me lad and/or lass. I spent years doing the same 3/4s pose and I pay the price to this day.
My suggestion to you is never stick to a piece of work stubbornly. You know what I mean, spending an hour trying something. Realizing something is wrong, then spending an hour making slight edits. Then spending an hour undoing the edits. Then making different edits.
9/10 times its because the foundation itself is off, not any minor detail. You will improve more and save time just starting over.

thanks!
I was going for some bright colors and contrast for her design, I wanted to make her stand out. And yes, I did intend to use some colors that are a bit of an eyesore. As for the lines on the wings, it was meant to be streams of lava, but I was running out of time to finish the drawing, so it got a little crappily done. And I mean quite crappily done.
