First of all, let me just say that I'm in love with this picture. It's a shot that clearly took a lot of preparation, and moreover it is inspiring to one's imagination. This piece screams its genius at you even when viewed as a thumbnail. Opened in all of its magnificence it radiates power.
On the one hand, I commend you on the minimalism of the photo, yet on the other I must condradict myself by saying that looking at it is like looking into the depths of a lake and discovering more and more layers to it, more and more hidden details. I can't help but wonder who is this girl you're depicting, and my mind draws numerous parallels. The glare adds a lot to the impression: it is everything it should be -- icy cold. This would be my definition of the way the queen of arctic should be looking at the world who's watching.
The colors are perfect. And though the red isn't igniting enough to shout "fire & ice" at me as the description suggests, and I wouldn't even stray in that direction if it weren't for the cigarette in your fingers, the title -- "Arctic Fox" -- seems dead on, and I like the red here discreet and foggy a lot better than if it were to be scorching. And amidst the undeniable coldness of the picture -- the hue of the skin, the dark blue lips seemingly glazed with ice, the satre, the background, the lonely pearl in a bow on your head, which is all indeed very "Arctic", there is something feral and sly that reminds me of a "Fox" besides the obvious redness of hair. Perhaps, it's the stare again. It reminds me of how a wild animal would just stare you down.
All in all, this piece definitely stands out from the rest of your gallery and I am curious to see more now. e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s… " width="15" height="15" alt="

I am absolutely in love with this photo.
First of all, the colors stand out without being to powerful. It's the perfect balance.
Her expression is fearless, flawless, and powerful. Well done by the model, and incredibly well shot.
Than angle is right on. Her shoulders aren't too blurred, and her face and hand isn't to strong.
Very natural looking, even with the editing, which is a hard thing to accomplish.
Her hand position and th cigarette prop is very nice, as well. It adds spunk to your model.
The only thing I could suggest that (I believe) would have made this a perfect 10, would be if the cigarette was brightly lit so that its red could be seen as well (and the smoke effect would have been a nice touch).
Overall though, 9.5/10! e.deviantart.net/emoticons/h/h… " width="15" height="13" alt="

This is my first time to write a Critque but I really wanted to on this one. ^_^
This image is absolutely gorgeous. The title of artic fox seems to compliment the image well. The gentle bluey white tinge of your skin was the first thing that surprisingly stood out to me, more so than your vibrant hair. Also, the way your nails are painted. The little details I picked up on, and then your hair burst in with a foxy effect.
The stare you are emitting also is incredibly captivating, making it quite difficult to take my eyes away from the image or from your face.
Honestly, I like the black hair piece. It breaks up the bright vibrant colour of your hair, toning it a little, but the ribbon and netting add slight elegance to the image, despite the cold exterior.
The only things I could possibly think of that could improve this image, was like mentioned above, maybe your lips could have been a little lighter. Then again contradicting this, I believe your lips being the colour they are there stand out beautifully and stops the image looking bland, with all the focus on your hair.
Overall, beautiful image, gorgeous girl.
Very well done. I hope to see more from you.

Very nice. I love the impact of the hairy color and lighting, it gives it this sorta.. mystical, or even paranormal look. The lipstick gives the face a little more color, I think maybe a lighter blue would've given a frozen-lips look, adding to the impact of the cigaret, but thats just me. The hat is sort of out of place, but it doesn't mess the photo up. I love how her skin is so pale, and I just noticed the color of the nails is a nice blue. Her being shirtless adds to the fact that shes outside, so she's not afraid of getting chilly e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s… " width="15" height="15" alt="

Very scary flat gaze you have there. The cigarette does help the image but I'm sure it could work with out it too, but it may be a bit too "flat" then, hard to say.
