Artist's Comments
This is one of my characters called Ankhkheperure, who reigned as pharaoh toward the end of the Amarna era during the Eighteenth Dynasty. Scientists, now-a_day, are still trying to solve the mystery of what happen to her and where could her mummy has gone. But what they still don't know is that she is still alive. The Egyptian god, Aten, granted her eternal life with the contract that she must work for him. She also cares for him too. She wants him to forgive the other Egyptian gods and become allies with them. Right now she works as a secretary for Atem as he plays with a few human lives as a lawyer. Her main power is telekinesis and she can use written spells.
I will tell you more about Aten one I draw him and post him. If you look up the got Egyptian God Aten, you can see what happens to that god in Egyptian history. I inked this first and the colored in Photoshop. Comments

Your style is nice, too. The lineart is clean and crisp.
The main thing that may need some work is the values. There is a low contrast between the base color and the shadows. The lighting that you implied in the background makes me feel like there should be some darker shadows. You may also want to play around with shadows; try adding in a hint of dark blue to the shadows or maybe dark red (it all depends on your light source).
There are also areas where you'd want a crisp shadow, namely, the cast-shadows. Underneath the necklace is an example of where there'd be a crisp shadow.
Maybe it's nit-picky, but the fuzziness of the hair bothers me. You have a crisp lineart, but then suddenly stops at the hair and it's all fuzzy, unlike the rest of the outline. Maybe try making a lineart around the hair (like in a cartoon style) or make the hair composed of long brush strokes that make up the lock of hair and include little extra strands hanging around, as hair has a tendency to do that.
So, as a concept, you have a very neat character that is simple in design and yet very unique, but little technical things take away from the drawing itself.
(That little mouse is just adorable, btw! :3 )
