Description ~12 hours in Photoshop 6 with a Wacom Intuos4 tablet.

Reference is Gallery Image 010 on Taylor Swift's website.

I would leave the title to be just "Taylor Swift", but I alread have another piece with that name.

The Edges are so Crisp .. Which is great IMO ... It looks like a Vector Illustration rather than a regular drawing but its a good thing I think . It does look like Taylor Swift although ten times hotter

I got lazy and used layer masks to make the general outline.

Be careful with shading and lines. The shading is especially inconsistent on her face and makes her back look awkward. Also, when it comes to the lines, her left eye is more boldly outlined than the right, and they are at an odd angle, compared to her lips, nose and eyebrows.

With the eyebrows, instead of one bold stroke, perhaps you should try small, thin strokes to emulate the brow hairs.

Finally, the outline of the face is off and makes it look like it was cut too short for some reason, also making the lips look unusually large.

Otherwise, you did a pretty good job. ^.^ I do kinda like the shading and color of the outfit.

thank you for the constructive criticism!

if you look at the full size (by which I mean the download) image you'll see the individual eyebrow hairs.

They are too consistent with each other, so they make it look like one bold line. Eyebrow hairs are not that perfect, and some stray upward or downward.
