Girl Punching Guy

[crazedaku]

Yeah, so this is my first picture post so here we go.
Basically this is a generic drawing of a girl in a schoolgirl uniform punching a mugger/rapist whatever. My main goal was to get more familiar with my wacom tablet and drawing on the computer in general.

What i would like to do is complete this drawing all the way through.

Suggestions on the background would be much appreciated since I don't have a real good idea of what would look good, the idea was a bridge over a creek in a garden in or close to a city.

And of course, any Critiques, anatomy, clothing, lighting, you know...

Please forgive the lines around the image, I'm still working that out.

You oughta do a comic...

Is she attacking him out of desperation, or is it more of of an offensive move? If it's the latter, make her brow furrowed down a little more, give her more of a pissy look.

I'd say its more out of desperation. But she doesn't realize her own strength.

Well, heres a little update. I cleaned up some things and i think the girl is just too bright for how dark it is outside. I played with some variations to see if that looked any better.

Lemme know what you think.

The images might be a bit large if your monitor uses a low resolution.

It really fits how the background is. In the first version, it would look like the light would be coming from the inside of the house-thing that the balcony was attached to. But now, it looks more like moonlight, and it fits it better.

Ok, so here's is where I'm at on this. I like the colors varied so that the characters seem to be catching the moonlight. The bridge should be lit up, but I don't think it should be lit that much. I am considering puting in wood planks of some wort on the bridge, then maybe adding a blue tint to it and doing some moon highlights on it. But I wanna see if anyone has suggestions on it.
