I like your degree of sensitivity of touch you've got in terms of pencil pressure. It shows itself in the variation of line and shading. You've also got some good places where you're showing depth and volume well.

I would like to know if you used a reference for the pose. I've seen similar before. It's not a judgment on your drawing, because I think using reference is never a bad thing, but it might help me understand your thought process in how you arrived at the result. Much of the other pieces in your gallery seem done without, but this one seems to be a little more accurate in terms of a consistent perspective. Yet there are still some things that are off in consistency of perspective (the hips seem to be viewed flat forward, while the feet indicate a receding into depth) which usually happen when one is starting out using reference.

Some of the anatomy in the arms seem to pinch at the wrist a bit as well.

In any case, if you are using reference, keep going in that direction, as in looking through your gallery, this is certainly one of your best pieces.

Keep up the good work.
