I love your version WAY better than the blonde Bowsette. You're keeping with the actual color scheme of Bowser and it makes it a million times more believable. The fierceness in the pose the sharp look in her eye THIS IS WHAT BOWSETTE SHOULD LOOK LIKE!!!

Damn dude, talk about bringing the heat lol. I love the damaged edges to add the wear and tear effect. The lighting on your crystals are spot on. If I had to give one critique on this lovely piece it would be to make your crystals slightly clear, right now the material feel more like plastic than stone oh and one more the ring of the key needs some bright highlights to make it pop and give it the 3D feel. Don't get me wrong though it's a gorgeous piece and by far better than the one I submitted lol. Another technique you may try is have some bounce light/ background light. It makes your character bounce out from the background more. Good luck dude!
