Just something to practice while deciding what to draw for a commission.

How many anatomical errors does it have?

Something about the eye placement feels...off. Can't explain it because I'm not sure which eye is bugging me.

And the girl's right shoulder seems a bit father from her neck than the left shoulder.

But, as an over all sketch, I really like it. Seems pretty well done. Granted I like just about all the pieces you post...something about your style, I guess.

It looks like her head is tilted but her eyes aren't.

Ngh. It's difficult to tell, because I think this is the angle I usually draw characters at, too.

Have you tried flipping the image horizontally? That tends to illuminate any errors you might be missing THIS way.

I normally don't flip the image horizontally because it looks weird, but I might do it this time sweatdrop

That's exactly why you should do it, lol. A good picture should look good both ways, I think. When I flip my pictures, they often tend to be leaning even though they seemed normal when I originally drew them... And if they're leaning when they're flipped, it means the original position is also leaning.

The eyes are definitely a problem. Just tilt your head to match how her head is tilted and it will probably be pretty clear (the eye to our left is too high). I think I'd have the eyes lower overall with the angle her head is on, though.
With that angle, the top/back of her head maybe seems a bit cut off... or maybe it's just too round at the upper-left part of her head.
Her breast to our left appears to be smaller than the other one.
And what Thaliat Everwood said about the shoulder.

The eyes are the main problem; otherwise, it looks amazing overall.
