it's beautiful work, and i'm not going to troll it even jokingly by saying her armor isn't accurate or some such trash. ;D . it looks great all-around, and obviously was something you felt good about while doing it. deservedly so. the gradient on the fogging is consistent with natural haze effects , and well done, and the face is nicely expressive. this is a great example of your style, with the crossover of cartoony and physically well-proportioned designs. the smudging and 'dirt' is both artistically and believably done and placed; and the detail on the nails and general shadowing on the figure is also well done.
the only suggestion i could add is that a shadowy object or two, such as a spear in the ground or tree , might make the background fog seem less 'wall-like' , and give a little more depth. on the other hand, if it's not subtly done, stuff like that can also draw away from the detail of the main subject.... and that would be a loss considering what you've done already!
if i'd ever figured out how to recommend a work for a DD , i'd probably submit this to 'the powers'.
now i'll read what others wrote
you can, as i know from personal experience, also get TOO tied up in adding detail. it's a slippery slope....
unless you're being paid to, change nothing for anyone unless you like the idea yourself....
