Midnight Fighting Practice by Fluffy-fez on DeviantArt (original) (raw)

Hiya from ProjectComment!

I really like this piece, the concept and composition really jumped out to me while I was looking through the gallery! Like others have said, the anatomy and pose are a little off. If she was leaning back that far, she'd be flat on her butt in a few seconds! She should be leaning forward a bit more if she's just skidding backwards, or leaning forward if she's attacking that dummy This guide really helped me with posing: fav.me/d16vfl2

There's a bit too much wasted space in the foreground, maybe it would be better to move Victoria a bit closer to the 'camera'? I like how she's front and centre, it really grabs your attention, but it could be improved. If you split the picture into thirds and had Victoria to the left, the window in the middle, and the dummy on the right, it would lead your eyes from one end to the other. I almost didn't notice the dummy at first because it's tucked off to the side; I was wondering what Victoria was doing!

All in all, I love the colouring and atmosphere of this work. Keep drawing! I'd love to see more from you.
