Description
When Liliana blows a kiss, it can crack the earth's crust, spewing out molten planet as though Mother-Gaia herself were nothing more than a giant, white-hot whipped-cream filled balloon.However, it is an ultimately sexy wake of annihilation; you'd die happy.
Here we see the lovely Mistress of Death showing off her sleek new dress of hideous, screaming doom. Woven entirely from the shredded hopes of the unfortunate souls who've crossed her. (Which, as it turns out, makes a comfortable, breathable material which accentuates both shapeliness, and pure smoldering evil.)
As is not uncommon for me, I have two versions of this card. One that's a little simpler, clearer, and so will work better when shrunk down to card size. And another, that is dripping with detail and extras, that would pretty much look like super grainy multi-color sand at card size. So I give you both the official version, and the blingtastic version.

I've met her, she's a minx alright... Nicely done.
Background looks familiar... The 'Sea of Steps' at Wells Cathedral?

This version is better. The other one has too many txtures, so focus is lost. Also the other one has two many flames. In fact, I would rather see no flames at all. They do not look natural here.

It's not fire. Looks more like some sort of extra-killy kill-spell lili's casting...

Usually I don't have a reason to be critical of your work... but her upper right arm looks a little too thin. It might be the angle, it might be the off-the-shoulder collar/whatchamacallit... or a combination there-of.
The twist of her hip is also odd to me... did you use a reference for this? Because I'd think the left hip (the closer one) would be the one that would look more rounded while the right hip (the further one) would look more straight.... though I can give that as possibly an effect of walking down the stairs. However, I'm still not sure the belt hangs properly for the shift in movement as she walks.
The overall piece is, as usual, gorgeous. and I love the simplicity of the background. It's clear where she is but without losing focus.

Same thoughts. Excepts those points, the art is a digital masterpiece.
