As I already mentioned, it's great to see some Fringilla fanart! Plus, it's I'm happy that drawing her seems to have helped you fight back that lack of inspiration you talked about last month. I can only agree with Ciarร n that Fringilla's pose is very alluring here: no wonder Geralt fell for her during his visit to Toussaint! :)

Oh wow, I am loving this painting! ๐ป๐ป๐ป๐ป๐ป
You've made Fringilla look so very sensual and alluring with her pose here, I love the way she leans her head to one side and extends her neck with her fingers teasingly tracing along the skin. Her body looks sensational as she pushes her hips to one side, giving herself this sensuous motion through her body while also accentuating her voluptuous curves.
And the dynamism of having her head and body in opposing directions, her hips and shoulders in opposing angles with her body curving between them and her arms asymmetrically raised and lowered all look terrific.
The rendering and detail all look terrific here too!
I adore the lighting on her hair with it mostly silhouetted in black with a horizontal line of light running across it and giving it definition.
All of her clothing looks excellent too, I especially like the pale purple lighting across her left hand/arm and breast, accentuating those areas and nicely contrasting with the dark purple material.
The detail in the tattered scrolls across her arms and waists with the folds in the material and writing along them are also very well done, as is that medallion on her hip with the shiny texture and engraved patterns.
And I do also enjoy the armband on her right arm and how the planes are defined and rippling with the alternating light and shadow.
Fringilla's skin textures and the way they're lit are all utterly superb and I really do adore her face, the closed eye-lids with the lightly purple toned makeup, the high cheekbone and how the light shines on it, as well as the shadows beneath her jaw that make her face pop are all amazing.
As for the anatomy of her body, the painterly textures and definition of her extended neck muscles are wonderfully done and I adore the bright light that shines onto her shoulder, the hard edge that separates her deltoid from her bicep, with the dark shadow running along the lower plane of her bicep all look so very appealing and do a terrific job in defining those areas.
Her breasts are simply magnificent too, accentuated beautifully by the straps wrapping over them and I love how her bosom overlaps the hanging fabric beneath them. And with the halo of light surrounding her nipples, softly and gently blending into the shadows on the outer planes of her breasts, the overall shapes look so appealing and smooth.
Meanwhile, all of the lighting across her lower ribs, stomach, pelvis, hips and thighs are sensational. The rim-lighting running along the contours of both sides of her waist/hips and thighs contrast so well with the adjacent shadows while accentuating those areas so well. And I love the light shining onto the centre area of her stomach, with shadows softly blending into them to accentuate those shapes.
You've done an excellent job with this painting!

And the overall lighting and colours all contrast and pop so very well!
