@Crimson
Details on the coat look nice with that light, the pose is a bit wide but not so obvious on smaller portrait resolutions.
BG is okay and expression works. Don't know if zooming in would look even better. 9/10
BTW, dem lips... ;)

Ah scipio, one of my current favourites.
Fantastic use of light , it's my usual complaint about most in this thread but you actually do seem to get it.

though those goggles cast too heavy of a shadow on your face where the light might otherwise do some interesting things with the plains of it.

That said the heavy cast shadow does give a certain tone to the portrait so while I'm conflicted about it it's hard to hold it against you.

Imo you are placed a tad off, you know about the rule of thirds? I'm actually just nitpicking but if you're going to offset you should move it a little more or come a little closer to the "camera".

Strong as is though , like I said, just not picking, 8.5/10.

Since you mention it.. excellent use of the rule of thirds; the center of gravity of the face falls close to the (1/3, 1/3) coordinate, and interacts with that circular background feature in an interesting way. The lighting is very good, and the character design is excellent; I can't help but see those fingers steepled together just below the frame..

10/10

You're super cute, and your character actually looks very asian - I'm assuming she's a Ni-Kunni? Frankly, I wouldn't change a thing. 10/10.

I too would be grumpy about that backgorund. It's larger than you! P

Now seriously, you have a interesting expression, even if it's lost in the smaller size. The best part it's the hair, it works really well with the pose and the grin. Also is an avatar very easy to identify.

But the background... huh. Will call it 7/10, maybe a solid corro background could work too. There's two reds, IIRC.

Awww! How cute!

(looks closely)

What the hell are those staples on your lips??? Shocked

Nice features and the pose is sexy enough, displaying that cute bosom (did I said that? About a EVE avatar?). Will say 8/10 for cute, -1 for piercings it's 7/10. Also the portrait would be better with some expression.

Well done. Provocative and instantly recognizable, although my mind instantly jumps to a strapless dress rather than the nude. The over-the-shoulder gaze is distracting, I feel like it should be ahead, looking flirtatiously from under your tilted head. Right now it looks like you got distracted in the middle of a happy thought.

9/10

The long, dramatic line of shadow is interesting. Find a background that doesn't totally clash with it and your lighting and you could have something going. 5/10

Enjoying the sinister full-on fascist dress sense and pose. Dark in many senses of the word.

7/10, for the facial expression being a cross between sinster glare and constipation, due to the long range of the shot.

I like that you have themes in your pictures. I really like this one, wasn't a fan of the brown on brown stuff before, but this is quite nice. I do however prefer a more zoomed picture.

7/10. 9/10 if zoomed in more.

Grrr.

Yes.

8/10. Moar zoom, and center it (like it was an hour ago but closer).

Grrr.

The black/grey/white scheme works great - though I think it would look perfect if your eyes looked toward the camera all creepy-like. That, or maybe matrix sunglasses P

EDIT: @Neph

8.5/10. Much improved. The character looks good in this angle and the proud pose works well with the uniform. A bit more zoom might improve it further.
