From - A fair trade - the venting thread

Not really much I can see you can fuddle with. Maybe darken her forehead as the fringe looks abit flat against her head/painted on, she could use a smidge of shadow there.Spiffy lighting tho :) Dagger is cool. If you were going to get detail-freaky the little icon on the dagger would probably be less clear due to light reflecting and glinting on the metal surfaces.. like it was "cut up" by the light play. If that makes sense. Its just abit too clear. But that would be really fiddly and I don't think i would have the patience to get that level of detail right. Mind you that is what makes good art great I imagine... all those little details.

I like her anyway :) She is just waiting for that cage to open and she is going to get crazy on someone's ass.

Ooh I didn't even think of that, the thing with the sword. Gonna have to go in there and maybe blur it you think? Or just make it really bright? I can go in and do a little shadow in the part on her forehead, good catch!

I think bright glints would do it... the only reason I thought it is that I am trying to be more sensitive to how light works. Driving down a wet road the other day I was taken with how the puddles reflected the sky and trees and cars and how they were little mirrors on the otherwise flat ground.

So, with the sword, if some bits of the icon weren't directly visible due to light glinting off the surrounding cut and polished metal surfaces... that would do it.

She looks Very good! Like she's about to take someone's head off :teehee

Only CC I have along with the other that you've gotten, is her hair. It looks really flat, & the top against her head looks kinda plastic-y. I imagine alot of that is probably from the texture though.
