Once again, you took on a piece with difficult poses, and once again you succeeded in many areas while.... falling a little short of succeeding in others.

I'll start with what most ails me, and with what was undoubtably the hardest part of the drawing. The girls facial tilt. You know, so many people make different drawing 'how-to's' when it comes to these sort of things, but sometimes the only way to get better is to try and to fail several times. You build up a callousness in your work, and on that firm foundation you start to find subtle hints in your drawing that make or break a piece. Let me make it very clear, this pose was not the easiest one. A reference image might have done you well, simply because 2/3rds of the girls body is 3/4ths to our right, where as 1/3rd is to 3/4ths to our left. What a pose! In future, I find that by looking at a reference piece you gain lots of helpful views on tough poses like this.

I digress, there are other things to speak of.

The background is EXCELLENT. No qualms there. I move on.

The shading, value, and texture is well done, and well placed! once again, an A+, and no more shall be said on it.

I believe over all, your error lies in the poses and how you initially ink them out. But that's a bump easily overcome and easily fallen into. You obviously took your time on this piece, and you effort payed off.... I think you should be proud with it's thorough consistency.
