I really like what you went for with this. The coldness of it and the abstract anatomy really makes me view my lady in a whole different perspective! It's a very artistic view of my character, one that I personally could never have concocted! I love it! Thanks!

constructive criticism:
when you do shading like that, don't do the "Daffy Duck" shading technique, which is what I call it when there is a black background and there is a white outline around shaded areas. Miller did this in the first Sin City, and it really shows his evolution and his growing confidence when that technique is never used once in That Yellow Bastard (and the story in that one is fifty times better, too).
she has no nipples??
shading on the lips woulda been nice, it kinda stands out as it is, or maybe you intended that I dunno
you were doing the thick-black film noir shading for the rest of the image pretty much, so it's distracting when you pull out some little lines for the hair
generally, groovy pose, great shading on the legs and arms especially, overall looks very real and believable

Open to all mediums. Deadline is March 10, 2010 @ 11:59pm PST.
