Thanks! Yeah, I'm pretty much a tard' when it comes to backgrounds and shading, so I had absolutly no idea if I got the shading right...apparently not. XD

Actually it looks like you have some pretty good structure going on here, I love the musculature and the wrists especially, but one thing I could see being a hinderance (although I can't speak officially on behalf of artspots) is lighting and atmosphere. Its a good character, no doubt, but there's nothing really drawing the viewer in. The lighting on the character seems to come from all directions instead of one (or two) defined sources. Maybe to go along with your cool characters play around with some settings (even just basic background elements, we're not talking huge epic murals here) and maybe some cool lighting, maybe even some different angles? Just hoping to help a little :)

Would this be a good porfolio peice? I'm not yet ready to submit one, but I want to see if I'm getting close. http://linacrow.deviantart.com/art/Clarissa-74660710
