Let me just start by saying that I haven't played the game, so my critique will be 100% based on the art that you have presented. And that art is incredibly impressive good sir. It's hard for me to choose where to start, so I'll begin by commenting on the character design itself. I've seen the character before so I know about her personality and background, and I believe you captured her badass and battle tested persona perfectly. The look in her eyes that express such stone cold seriousness and aggression is wonderfully done. And her pose displays such action, a lot of which is due to the blur effect that you added in. And you not only added it in, you did it just right. Adding a blur effect is hard enough on it's own, but to put in just the right amount in the exact right places takes true skill and experience. And the action pose you had her strike would be difficult on a normal girl, but action stances are always far harder on larger women simply because their body takes up more space and can't be positioned in the same way as a thinner woman. So you found a way to keep her weight in tact without compromising the action. Excellent job. And while I'm on the topic of characters, I love the little touch of Eddie in the background throwing her. Little touches like that make pictures go from good to great.

One last thing to comment on, and that's the coloring job you did on the background. The gray and tan blur together seamlessly, never once drawing attention to itself so the focus stays on the characters, while at the same time complimenting them and enhancing their presence. I know that the game is all about heavy metal and grunge, and the color you picked for the background truly displays the heaviness and rocker spirit that the game strives for.

So you have always been one of my favorite artists on DA, and this is without a doubt one of your top five best pics. I'm glad I finally got a chance to critique something of yours.
