Saw this on /d/, and I had to say I quite like this pic. It's simple but that works in its favour. I like how her face is shaped too, with that subtle smirk.
Will say though that the prey's bulge is a bit weirdly positioned. By that I mean, the two side bulges; are they shoulders, elbows? Lady's breasts are a bit oddly shaped, mostly the right one being much pointier than the left. We can still see the sketch lines you used for her body which, while it solves my worry her proportions were a bit off with how big the stomach was, it's a bit dirty and could do with being cleaned a bit.
Unlike SOME people who have pretty pointless comments, few even on this picture, figured it was a good thing to try and offer some feedback for you. It looks good, keep it up.
Oh well. Laziness is the #1 killer of artists. Let's hope you get that checked out sooner rather than later.
Now, by foreshortening, did you mean the breasts? Honestly in most cases you really shouldn't, do that. A limb is understandable or an entire section of the body. But a breast is kind of an odd part to choose.
As for elbows, again a somewhat unusual choice. Not that it doesn't work well, but usually if elbows are used, so are things like shoulders or, arms too.
Ah okay, the legs. Needed that clarified for me. From the bed's angle I assumed she was leaning back. Even without that her pose would be kinda awkward from the get-go, being another sorta clue. I'm not entirely sure you'd foreshorten legs even then, or if any is really going on. Still, seeing the guidelines gives me an idea of what you wanted to try.
As for the prey bulge, oh well. I say chaulk it up to practice, and next time you draw, either do the lazy-but-easy balloon belly, or do more/different details for the prey. Definitely advocate for the more-detail approach.

Tanks, it’s much appreciated. I didn’t notIce that the lines were left in until it was already uploaded and I'm too lazy to fix it.
I tried to do some foreshortening, which kinda worked, but it also makes things seem disproportionate. The two side bulges are supposed to be elbows.

Not the breasts, no. The legs. She's leaning back on a bed.
Yeah, the bulges look strange now that I look back at it, especially considering how the prey is supposed to be curled up.
