Well.... that brought me to the brink of insanity and back! :D
About 24 hours with photoshop and wacom tablet.
I tried to get across an eerie feeling of weariness with her expression and the lighting.
References to help with the face came images of Megan Fox and salma Hayek. I tried to render the face stocky to make her look like she could handle a fight. I also used some deep sea diving suit references to help with the armour.
I’ve learnt a few things from this portrait and some weaknesses that i have to address. I think that i need to practice the form principle more – i think her face may look a little flat. Im always chasing those perfect colours as ever. I also have to work on some decent brushes for those pesky pores.
Any criticism is welcome from any of you pros out there – i’d really appreciate that.

Critique by *Dark413 Jul 12, 2011, 9:59:53 PM
This is truly an AMAZING painting. You realy are talented. The feeling in her eyes. You can "feel" the experiense she has gone through. AND the mouth tells you she dont take sh** from noone. The lighting is top nodge. Love the sparks? Amber glow flying around her, and the hair is amazing. The wounds on her just makes her more real and the armor is very cool looking. Only thing "wrong" with her is her nose. looks a bit flat to me. And the backgraund could have a more.. ehhh ambient glow? I see the smoke but I don't feel the rubbles or what ever is burning out there. Still A TOP painting and I wish I had HAlf your talent. You are on my watch list from now on and an imsperation to all. :D

I'm no expert, but I did notice something sightly askew. The right eye appears to have less lashes around it than the left one. A minor issue. But, I really dig this image, the metal armor looks great, the face is really well rendered, and the hair is so powerful that for a moment I thought this was a photograph and not a painting. :D

Superb work here!

This is just awesome. And in comparison to your other work - in my humble opinion - by far the best piece you have prestented here. It is simply alive. Great emotion.

There's a fine line between genius and insanity. I have erased that line.
