The cloak itself is beautiful in its soft texture, flowing folds, and provocative red tone. It almost seems to have the same structure of a brilliant, red rose or perhaps a thick red mist enveloping her. The collection of vibrant folds in the hood are just so eye-catching I can't get enough of them. They make me wish this was a shot of the entire cloak, but perhaps the lack of it adds more mystery to the piece. We can't see her entire face, or the rest of her body, or even the entire weapon behind her. There can be many interpretations to this piece and I'm sure I'm only scratching the surface. As for the scythe, it does feel very random. The only purpose I can see behind it is to give the piece an edgier, darker, more sinister tone, but it's harsh intrusion across the picture is quite a large contrast from the softness of the cloak and skin. Perhaps that is what you were aiming for? This is a gorgeous piece, but I personally feel the scythe was unnecessary.

A really amazing piece of art, even if it's not really perfect. It simply haven't to be perfect.

I love the material of the red cloak, my first eyecatcher. Because of it's brightness. pure and elegant, but obvious present.
Her Lips... hm i like her lips, but i think you hadn't have to make her lips more voluminous with makeup. I do not like the red color-shine above her mouth, but her face is as beautiful as a really good painting ... looks as elegent as her bright red cloak with her clear, simple and perfectly formed contours.
The knife... nice knife ^^ maybe i would like a bit more "blaze", or a decent lens flare, so that it doesn't become overlayed by the eyecatch effect of her cloak an the bright looking face.
it flows in the background ...
But the shiny sword could be my own impression, maybe you want to say something with "hiding" the knife...
maybe you want to demonstrate the inconspicuous dangerousness of this woman ...
and maybe the knife should crash the romantic dream of the innocent, white beauty, give it it's dark desperate effect, even if the look of strongness and rigidity does never disappear! ... cold sadness, wich makes you strong and determined ... i would like the shine at the blade... but without shine, the meaning is more powerful, so i like it like it is

nice work dude
