Great stuff... I love how straps pull in the flesh of her legs a little, and how you make the light catch it.
(Perhaps that's an odd detail for me to dwell on in a picture that's holistically awesome, but it just stood out to me as cool.)

I wouldnt call that odd at all . I've been looking through some books on Boris Vallejo and noticed how well he does indents on skin etc and have been trying to work on it myself.
Cheers Andrew!

I always enjoy perspective work.. maybe because I did a lot of technical drawing stuff in high school I guess. That being said, I did have a friend stand on a chair for this one !

From the worm's eye view, now would not be the time for a witty comment regarding her features either.
