The gladiator has a moment to think after her victory in the arena. The beheaded warrior obviously doubted her abilities as a woman, his final mistake.....

The face is so nicely-done; it's got a powerful but elusive emotion. It's great when you can get people to wonder "What are they thinking?" It's not something you can encounter too often.

Hmmm...quite bloody, but then we all have a blood lust somewhere within us, don't we? Once again, beautifully drawn. The emotion here is overwhelming! I wonder what her story is?

Seeing as she is holding two swords I presume she finished him with his own weapon. Girls Rule!

Excellent. One thing: SHE is a GladiaTRIX.

To Steve: I think she would be what is called a Demachaeri, a gladiator who fights with two swords. They weren't as common but were not at all unknown in ancient Rome. (BTW it's very difficult to fight with two swords).

WONDERFUL drawing. Man, I'm envious lol. All of your art is amazing, I'm so glad I found your gallery.

Shes pretty, but there is some thing cold about her expression. The black in the back could use some blending.

As for girl fighters: Yes, males are stronger, and have better reflexes, females just have to use superior tactics. I'm built about like this femi, and I can take out the captian of the wresteling team so... yah!

You Go Girl! I like her expression. Great Job!

Really like the picture, but the wall of the arena could have been a bit better. Try drawing all the lines in the same direction next time, at least I feel the result gets better then 2
