Very cool painting!
The pose itself seems really unnatural though, like I'm not too sure what's supposed to be happening here? I suppose she just looks too "dainty" for a warrior girl (the pose, not necessarily her body), like why is her foot up on tip-toe? Although I'm betting that's a result of a slightly unfortunate stock photo.
OVERALL though this is great, I'm super impressed that the metallic-effects you've managed to get. Looks like you've put a lot of effort into this, and it paid off

Thank you!
Yeah, the pose it a bit ... improbable but I picked the reference image becouse it had a lot of stuff to study, armor, cloth, fur, leather, etc. Was good learning material.

It looks very good to me, I like the knee area especially, also love the way you rendered all the different materials. The face looks good, too, very good job. The only thing I would suggest for improvement would be to make the cast shadow on the upper part of the front leg thigh stronger, right now it doesn't seem to push back enough. Overall, very good work, keep it that way! How long did it take?

Thanks a lot for the thoughtful comment. You are right, now that u mentioned it the juxtaposition of the textile stripe and the leg behind became very distracting to me. It took some long 15 hours but was split into a collection of sub-studies.
