This is pretty cool! I like how natural the colours look and the tattoo comes out really nice. I would only like for a little more of her to have a matching level of polish. Maybe around the eye and a few fingeres on the left hand. Just to give the piece a little more overall consistency =]
And if you use the mature content flag you don't have to censor =] Let's not censor ourselves and our art even more, it's already so prevalent on other platforms
But in any case, good work! And I feel you about the nose!

Thank you so much for your feedback Daniel. I truly appreciate it. Lately it has been really difficult to get some feedback and constructive critics on dA and it saddens me, specially since I joined when this was actually an art oriented place. :/
So whenever I have some amazing artist like yourself commenting and actually making good points on my drawings it makes me really happy.
You are right... I could have spent a bit more time on the areas you mentioned... I'll do better next time. I tried to copy the original photo (without the tattoo) the best I could, but there was a very dark shadow coming for the left that obscured many areas of her body :/ (so... gonna choose a better reference next time xD)
About the censor (I'm like in a lone war here x'DD)... yeah, that is me trying to be a rebel (and not a very good one as you can see x'D) since I really hate the dA policies on what they consider nudity or not.
Anyway, thaaaaank you thank you for you comment!

You are most welcome! 
And yeah, this isn't really a platform to get critiques on. In fact, barely any platform ever really is. Usually when I need feedback I just hit up one of my artist friends whose opinion I respect and trust and ask them directly. Gives me much more prompt, reliable and in-depth feedback than I'd get otherwise =]
Hm, I haven't seen the original reference, but who knows, maybe the shadow would have been cool 
Haha, I see! 
I am glad you consider me a nice person!

Most of the times I do that, but I find it difficult to connect to other artists on some platforms (I dont have many friends who like to draw irl, my job is completly different from this hobby of mine xD so it kinda sucks on that). So I cherish the people I find online, and I do ask my friends for their opinion. I agree with you, they are a very reliable source of feedback.
About the reference, I can show it to you actually (forgot I saved the image on my pinterest account lol): link (it's the third one from the bottom)
I tried, last year, a life drawing workshop that lasted for 3 months I think (once a week we had lessons). I found it really helpful to improve anatomy and to reduce the need I have to make everything neat and perfect xD and just loosen up like you said. Clearly I need more of those lessons, but I think the works I like the most are the ones I made during those lessons, since they much more expressive.
It's not the nudity tag per se, it's more the negative feeling provided but it. I tried not adding a mature tag on one of my drawings and it reached a completly different amount of people, compared to those that don't have the tag. And what reaaally annoys me is the need to add a mature tag just because of a nipple. It's frustrating, since many works on dA are much more revealing and dont need mature tag because the person just added "clothes" on top of it. I'm not afraid of the connotation it provides, I'm just surprised by the fact that a female nipple is considered nudity and as so... it must have a mature tag. It's ridiculous. xD
Ahaha you're welcome Daniel
