You're so talented, especially with the lighting and anatomy. Beautiful! Are you using a real model, a photography or only your brain as a reference?

Thank you!
I'm still training and practising, so I mostly work from photo references, they stay still longer than a model does. 😀
With a digital photo image I can also colour correct and edit the image how I want.
Painting anatomically correct (and detailed) figures from imagination is god mode. I hope to reach it one day.
"they stay still longer than a model does"
yes, I had always been concerned about models getting uncomfortable holding a pose, so I worked often from photos as well. However, nothing beats a life model for drawing exercises that must be done quickly to capture the dynamic of the pose with a few strokes. Such quick sketches are very useful for the final painting.
And then, you might enjoy the interaction with the model, as in this image by Kurt Regschek:
