hmmm...looks good--a correction, if I may;

The right side of her face is too far over--from the perspective you have, it should hug the features of the face, the eyes and the mouth, and not portrude as far out. (this is HER right side, left if you're looking at it). If you'd like, I could sketch something really quickly to better demonstrate what I mean...

Other than that, everything looks really well done. Her left eye might be a little too far to the left (our right...), and I would add some semblence of a jawline (thats just me mind you), but the hair, eyes, and overall face is very well done, it has all the characteristics of an anime face, which is what you were going for, so GOOD JOB.

*thumbs up*

her right eye (our left) is a bit wonky, i've noticed. thanks for the crit; i'd love if you could do a sketch for me. i've been wanting to try anime for some time now, but i don't have photoshop nor a scanner, so i'm stuck with pencils and crayons (yes, crayons.)

Yes, its called real life.
You can get them 24/7, even from a mirror!

Or... www.saveloomis.org
there was a site that had different nude poses everyday, perhaps that would work, try googling it.
You shouldn't judge a book by it's cover, instead, you should read every single book to see what every book is about before you even come close to judging its viability.

Also hunter, in your sketch that you did, it shows the face slightly facing up, which means you should see less of a pointy chin, and more of the underside of the jaw.

Yeah but weapons are easy, I mean, metal of a stick.

Knights would be tougher.
