Creation

"You cannot talk about creation, if you haven't created yourself"

I had quite hard times, when I drew this (mostly in school, during boring classes)... I had a couple of really fierce inspirations, when drew the sketch and started working on it, but in a while I just went into a routine: lesson - I pull out my pen and work - drawing. I was wandering about ~Doc-Hammer's gallery/scraps/journal and got really inspired in doing something really worth showing. I kept repeating a quote from his journal: "your best work is the work you're working on right now.." It really helped. After looking at such sites (here at DA) like ~Doc-Hammer's I just want to succeed till such level... I just want myself to be pleased with my works fully, but everytime there's something wrong with it. As it is with this one. I guess it's not good to be happy about something entirely.. maybe it's even against nature.. either you've reached the level of God (impossible) or the ceiling of your arrogance (very likely).

Anyway... this is something, that I've worked on really serious, basically with everything I have... yet, when I now look at it I see many places where I could've done better:
1) the background is just ridiculous, though I've never been good with backgrounds...
2) those little weird looking things in the corners are so obvious space-fillers -_-''
3) that crown on top could be different, Queen-of-England-like, more details...
4) I have to work on my skull shapes, though that's really the best I can do for now
5) that crown on girl's head - that eye and crosses - just wrong... I should have worked more with the alchemical symbols
6) anatomy of the skeleton is just... *slaps herself* the breast-bone should be a lot shorter and those ribs are not much rib-like
7) guts - I think they should be a bit darker yet I'm not sure...
8) the chains seem wry, but that's understandable, since I worked with my freinds nudging me all the time and in some classes - on my knees
9) I could have done better on hooks, though.. they are very wry..
10) the scarf doesn't seem like cloth.. I might have used the wrong texture..
11) It's quite hard to notice scars on her hips, I must've overdone the stippling
12) the lower cross seems out of place... different texture might've worked...
13) it's practically impossible to notice, that her eyes are sewed up...

I'll leave the symbolisms up to you.. I'll just note one of them (I'm not sure of you can understand it) - the scars on her hips are scars, that are left after cutting her ovaries out. Pretty fucked up, but I think that you get the idea (note the title).

any other criticism besides the mistakes I listed is VERY welcome
