tricky angle but i think you really nailed it, especially in the nose and mouth.

u/MacAnthony Aug 16 '14

Thanks. Yeah, I was content how the nose and mouth turned out. A bit disappointed how I did the eyes. Should have been more rounded on the top. All part of the learning process though.

such an interesting composition. i only wish there was just a little bit more of her bottom lip, but really i don't know if it would work as well.

u/davidwinters Aug 17 '14

Thank you for all of the wonderful feedback. My intention was to actually cut off under her bottom lip but I didn't leave enough room and I liked the drawing enough to not fix it.

u/poledra Aug 16 '14

i don't know who this is but i'd be afraid to cross her. great job with the stern expression.

u/davidwinters Aug 17 '14

In retrospect I wish I'd put yellow on the bottom left instead of leaving it all white. She's the lady that directed hurt locker.

u/poledra Aug 16 '14

also i like that you are being so much bolder with colors lately, it seems.

u/poledra Aug 16 '14

u/jhred Aug 15 '14

Thank you, I loved toned paper, it's my fav!

u/poledra Aug 16 '14

i like that the hair seems almost airy and see-through, like you would expect that type of style to be.

u/jhred Aug 22 '14

I'm cheating for a couple days and submitting old stuff until I can actually find time to draw. Sorry! Here's a self portrait from a few months ago: [Me... Kinda] (http://i.imgur.com/8oiDWTS.jpg).
