CyVoltage: This is the first time I’ve been able to post something I’ve drawn into the Prequel Fanart page. Critique is great if you’ve got it, don’t ask me to draw porn. K, thanks, bye
KuroNeko: Nice, I really like her pose.
As for critique, I guess her left hand is a bit too small and the lines could be cleaner but that's all I can find, this is good.
Zargothrax: Very well drawn, welcome to the artists club!
The pose is dynamic, and the piece altogether tells a story (the infiltration), not just showing one of a character from the comic as is, which is not something anyone expects, it is a plus.
I like how you applied perspective on the feet. Realistically, at this distance it shouldn't be this prominent, but in my opinion, artists may bend reality a little to make a drawing more dramatic.
As for advice (take it or leave it): If you're drawing on paper, when drawing the pupils, or irises (for Katia they seem to be one and the same), always draw them as just a faint dot at first. This already shows where the character is looking, so if mistaken, can be fixed quickly, as erasing a dot is easy. Then, it is just a matter of drawing a circle around the dot, then fill. Drawing an eye, then realizing that they don't really look in the same direction is really painful to fix as an afterthought.
By the way, you didn't remove the exif data from the image before uploading it! Creeps online can read personal data from this metadata from the image. Sometimes it even contains the coordinates where the picture was taken. Also, there are instances where the exif data also contains preferences about how the image should be oriented, in which case an uploaded picture can appear sideways when uploaded.

CyVoltage: @Zargothrax: Oh damn, I see you’re one of the more helpful people alive. Thanks for the tips and especially the information on exif data, I had no idea that kind of information was available through the photo alone. Thanks for the help!
CyVoltage: @KuroNeko: Yeah, I suck at making good lines, so I usually go for a sketchy style, although I should be trying a clean style sooner rather then later
