cheers!

It looks good so far though I keep thinking something is odd about her right thigh/leg. Don't know if it is too thin or flat on top or what. If the only light source is that in the right corner, then I think most of her right arm would be in shadow as would a fair bit of that troublesome right thigh. A shadow on that thigh would also help to give it shape like the stuff tied to her left thigh does. Good luck with it.
First impression is its a great concept. Theres so much you can do with some blending and bounced light and shadows. I hope to see more! will there be color?
great concept and I like the look and feel of it. first though though would be that the arms each different sizes from the other. compare the forearms and compare the biceps.

hello again, another update, added textures on the background and painted a few things like stalak..stalactites (hiks!!) and some rocks, still pretty rough mainly the ground but i'll get there..
tell me what you think, cheers!!! :)

looks good grey, but I found it had a lot more feeling and mystery to it when it had the bluish tinge to it. still looks good this way, but I liked it better when it was rather monotone.

i'm not gonna be much help here because i like both versions, i love the coldness of the blue, it makes it haunting, but the sepia tones on the new one make it look earthy & witchdoctory/voodooish.
if i was trying to make life hard for you i'd say work them both up
''scratches head''...''scratches a bit more''....argh, well i'll try to work on it and decide as a go, maybe work on them both for a while, photoshop is easy on colour so maybe i'll try, thanks for the feedback you all !! har har har

In the new version her body is merged into the background... not sure if that's your intention, but in the blue version her body's silhouette is still visible and separate her from the environment, which I like. Also, the torch is kind of dim in this new version, and in the first version it is bright. It really should be bright.
Oh deary me, welcome to the scratchy head club. I've been in your shoes so many times, looking at different versions of the same artwork and not knowing which is best. Personally, with this art, the colour one looks more finished, so I prefere this version, though both are good in their own rights.
