Looking great Metalman. Those high contrast shadows are working a treat. It's gonna look great when it's finished. Maybe neaten up that hair shine a little more, sit it look more solid and spikey and less like a freehand squiggle? Any anime screen shoot would be good reference for the hair shine - as long as the screen shot contains a character with hair!

I really like that style of shading! Been kinda what I've been aiming for.
Can't wait to see you finish it!
She's holding the neck tie in her mouth? Even though it's red I don't really recognize it as a tongue at first (like some did in the pencil), which is a good thing right? Can't speak for anyone else though.

Is a 'tab' one of those things that lets you use a pencil like object to draw on a pad that inputs it into your PC?

thanks for the comments...im surprised that i really colored it...

Kieth...a "tab" is what i call a digitizing tablet for short....and yeah basicly is a pen instead of a mouse.

Uh I hope I'm not to late,
Overall it looks awsome, but the shadows on her top and hairband could be a little bit darker (there are hard to make out).
And right now it is fairly bright (but I guess when the Bg is added it will be perfect).
