Description
Commission for Julita Saragih in Facebook.This character is Shinta from Wayang stories~
Ramayana
With Javanese influenced~ I used Batik texture for her dress~
The concept was unique and i love it~ At first she was riding a dragon, but the concept was changed and we pick this one. I love drawing her armor ^^
I never draw a horse except Pegasusmon, so i used a lot of references & inspiration :
Horse 12
Archer crouching

What a great, dynamic pose! You did an amazing job with the overall composition - the horse is in motion, the sky is angled, and she's in the middle of shooting that bow. So much action!
I know you asked about composition, environment, and details, so I'll try to provide some feedback on those. Like I said, the composition is great! The environment is lovely too. The details are a little busy (especially the pattern of the dress plus the gold details of the armor), but it's not too busy. The thing that popped out at me first, though, was the horse and its pose. The head of the animal is facing forward, towards the viewer, but the front legs and chest appears to be viewed from the side.
I did a quick redline on the horse, outlining how I'd approach the pose. I'm no expert in horse anatomy! But in this one, I made the head a little smaller to match the body and made both the chest and legs so they're facing forward.
Hope this gives you some ideas for things to try if you decide to keep tweaking this.
Keep drawing!

Hello there! 
It's a beautifully rendered painting with wonderful action and movement, but I think it could be improved by balancing high and low intensity color and contrast to bring attention to the areas that are most important in the piece.
The detail that you’ve added is painstaking and leaves a lot to explore and discover about the work. The grass in the distance, the designs on the surface of the armor, the pattern on the skirt are all lovely.
There are also some very nice shadows giving 3-dimensional form of to the elements, especially on the peytral on the horse’ chest. I think this treatment could benefit other elements in the piece (like the girl’s skin and armor) which currently feel a little flat in comparison. High contrast through dramatic shadows and bright highlights make things more attractive and call our attention, and right now the armor on the horse’s chest and legs has a lot of that even though they're not very important (compared to other parts of the piece).
Every element of the piece feels like it wants to be the central element, which actually flattens the piece and reduces its drama. When you’re planning out an image, it helps to pinpoint the areas that are the focal points and make sure the scene is set up to let those areas shine the most. In this case, I would expect it’s the girl’s upper body/face/hands and the horse’s head. And we want to look at those elements, but the bright shiny intricate armor calls our attention away. It may see a little counter-intuitive, but you need to let some elements step out of the spotlight so other more important elements can stand out. Making less important elements (like her boot, the horse’s legs, the hem on the skirt, the grass, and the sky) less bright and less colorful while pushing the contrast on more important elements (the girl’s face and armor) can balance the piece and make it feel more focused. The lower priority elements can still have detail, but let it be subtle.
Overall it’s a wonderful piece, and I think you have some really awesome art ahead of you. Keep up the good work!

Hellooo~ Thank you so much for the thoughtful feedback, dear! i really appreciate it ^^
The details are painstaking indeed, but I've had a lot of fun drawing those armor details XD
i did planning the focus point, it's Shinta and the horse's head, they are both in the composition grid i was planning. However, I'm unsure how to make the viewer more focus to Shinta, not the horse ^^
