Holy shit.
Okay, first of all, the composition on this is sick. The movement and gesture of the design of it is so clear and clean. Your palette is also beautiful--the colors are mostly neutral, but the bold saturated red-orange you used really pops and allows our eyes to weave throughout the entire piece. The breathing room and negative space youv'e created is very eye-pleasing.
One thing that I would have done is to make the line that her legs create not line up with the hair/swirlies near the bottom of the page, and create either more breathing room or curved the hair around in a way so that that invisible line stops instead of keeps going to the bottom of the page. But, that's a very very picky thing on my part, because my eyes create a distinct straight line from the tops of her knees all the way to the bottom of the page. You've got such nice gesture to the curves of this piece, and you should honor that throughout, so nothing looks stiff, which you've achieved here for the most part.
This is seriously gorgeous stuff.

Fuck paying for a subscription, I'll just use my freedom of speech and write you a critique in the comments. D : <
I really love the shapes in this picture, which is really what helps to make it stand out to the viewer. Overall, it's very well composed and put together, and ultimately I think that is one of the most important things about any picture. The flow of her body, the way it's crouched and framed by her hair, is very striking and works well.
A minor detail, because most of the anatomy looks great, but the hand that's holding the knife looks a bit backwards- maybe if you detailed the fingers in with a thinner pen it would do the trick. My other suggestion, but this time for the piece as a whole, would maybe be to shade a bit more in the lower portion to the picture (the tail as it travels down). If you wanted to maintain the vibrant solidness of the flat colours (which is something I love about your style), I might conversely go over the colouring in the tail again to make it more uniform. The fading of the colours in and out interrupts the "pop" of the image a bit.
Very beautiful piece. I love your command of the ink pen and of shapes and forms in general.

Is that a kitchen knife?
