Thanks, although it's still merely a pinup.

True, but there is just something classier sometimes about a woman who is not completely made of breasts like lady death usually is.

As far as I'm aware, that was the purpose this character was made for. I've never even read any of her comics.

Lady Death is a very interesting character and It had a lot of success in the 90Β΄s, if you search in the wikipedia youΒ΄ll find the whole story about her. I think youΒ΄ve made a great work the lights are awesome and itΒ΄s got a lot of great details wich make the drawing even more outstanding. IΒ΄m working on a drawing about her on my own style and I think youΒ΄ve given to the character all she needed.

Within the swords and sorcery motief, this is certainly within normal limits, so you won't draw serious criticism from me for any of it.

If I was really going to pull "She looks cold" joke though it'd be along the lines of "Oh no! She's already losing her color! Someone get her a shirt!" to tie in her white skin. That sort of joke has been done so much though that it's really sort of a crime.

The bra thing is hard. I really appreciate how all the lines come together in it. Maybe I'll just image that the straps continue up and under the cape and clasp and everything will be fine. That might also help with keeping the cape down at that level now that I think about it.

Using the sword as a light source was an interesting choice. It makes me wonder where she is that is otherwise perfectly dark, though I'll freely admit that may have been something that didn't seem like it mattered in making the piece. The lighting makes for an eye catching scene though for more reasons than just exposed flesh.

For some reason I find the most eye catching part of her costume her chest. Not because it's a woman's chest, but there's something about the details there. I like the ornate skull clasp, and the little chains make a nice contrast with other curves without being distracting. I guess it might just be that it's an area with a lot of contrasts of lights and darks and nice sweeping lines.

Though everything that I know about wearing capes and bras tells me that would be a non-ideal way of holding up your top. Fantasy design pretty much calls for the opposite of practicality to not be boring, but that's a minor distraction I thought I'd mention.

Sadly the remaining 90% of what springs to mind to say about this is horribly cliched "She looks cold" stuff, but that's as inevitable as drawing scantily clad women with swords isn't it?

I don't know much about the character but I suppose she's some sort of demon princess or something? I imagine that might help protect her from otherwise being cold. The point about the cape clasp supporting her top is valid. I should have thought about it more but I just sort of came out that way since I didn't want to make a more traditional bra.
