Absolutely Beautiful. I love the colors but there are two things that really catch my eye here. First is the lighting. So bright, glaring almost. She's a goddess of some kind or a vision, perhaps what a man of Egypt may see as his Aphrodite.
The eyes are the second. Commanding, demanding. She stares down her onlookers and admirers and without words is telling them how rare this opportunity is, to be so near to her. She is telling them what an honor it is for them to see her, yet all at the same time, how beneath her they truly are.
The only thing that I see that I don't like are a couple of points of curvature. The chin looks a little off. A little too square for a piece with so much life. Her upper arms seem to lack some feminine grace. I'm not saying they look like a man's arms, they simply just don't seem to have that slight curve that most women of this build seem to have.

However, over all this is a fantastic piece. Absolutely beautiful
