*I don't think I have enough to say about it to leave a critiq.* It looks really good. the only thing I can say that would probably improve it, is contrast.

remember to get those dark and light streaks in the hair to break it up for more strands. It is really going to add volume to the hair and give it some more detail as well. Always a good thing. As it is now, it kind of just looks like a layover of value.

The only off thing anatomy wise I see is the hand, the left side of it. it looks a little to strait. might just be me.

The skin looks really well done. The way you blended and smoothed it looks really nice around the nose and the eyes. If it was to look more real, it is probably the same deal. your contrast. hit some places a little harder. Watch what places you do blend together with the shadow, rather then keeping it a little more sharp of a change.

Over all in the end at this point with your skill, I think it is just how much attention you put into the minor details that will bring it out.

All these things I'm looking at in no way takes away from the piece. I'm just pointing out stuff for a critique, nothing is personal. It is a very nice piece of work overall. A nice choice of background for a portrait. and Pin-pon is so cute :3 Good work with this one LC, Keep it up! e.deviantart.net/emoticons/a/a… " width="31" height="19" alt="" title="Ahooooy Matey!" />

First of all, thank you very much for posting a critique! Opinions like this help me a lot.
I'll keep your words in mind. I was aware that the contrast could be improved, but the hard strokes/lights tip has been really helpful.

Again, thank you

Hmmm, you're right! I was happy with the shadowed area of the yellow part, and forgot the rest... Next time I'll be more careful. Thanks for the tip!
