Hiii! <3
First off, I have to say that I simply adore her stance and her outfit. They're both very, very nice.
Overall, your anatomy is very good, but there are a few things that you can maybe look in to:
1. Her eyes and nose are a little bit high up on her face, which makes her forehead seem a bit small.
2. Her back arches inward a little bit too much.Β
3. Her calves need a little bit of muscular definition, especially since she's standing on her toes. You can achieve this by adding some shading along the contours of the muscles. You can look at this image (www.google.co.za/search?q=leg+β¦ ). It's very exaggerated, but just to give you a sense of the muscles along the leg area.
4. Her hand is a little too small in comparison to her face. Remember that your hand, spread out, is almost the same size as your chin to top of your forehead :3
Other than that, all good! ^-^
I also like the colours you used. It's monochromatic, but harmoniously so, so the image is very appealing to the eye. Her expression is also calm and sweet, as you explained her personality to be, so that link is something I like. And her hairstyle is adorb! <3
Hope this helps! Keep up the good work! <3

Thank you so much for your critique. I am working on a few of those things that you mentioned, so I am at least somewhat aware of them. Also, I simply love that hairstyle and would love it if my own would do that ^.^

Hi! I am from
I am here to tell you thyroid, what needs work, and how to go about fixing it.
The good:
The character and the fashion design looks really good. The dress has a really nice and sleek design, especially with the angle it was cut. The color pallet of dark green , grey, and black work really well as well as the dark green hair. The way you made the sheer lace and sock's fabric look is really good and it all comes together nicely.
What needs work:
I do on it have much to suggest but I do have this: the image is small and the canvas is fairly large. I would cut the size do all the grey the character is floating in. Maybe add a darkened chair under her to show depth and her standing instead of floating.
Other than that this is very lovely. Well done.

Thank you very much for your critique. These images were more centered on human design, and I know I'm terrible at backgrounds. I might add a background in, as you suggested, once I'm good enough at doing them that I feel they will not detract from the image. If you look at a few of my other pictures, I actually am getting a little better at that though ^-^'

Looks great! I love the colors chosen and the details of her shawl really bring the outfit together.

This looks amazing! Your anatomy is really good, think. Your shading is also splendid and subtle. The only thing I would practice on a little more is the lips, and even those are great. Another thing is the way she's clutching the book, I'd add a little more detail to her hands. Hands are hard to draw for me, so I shouldn't say much either. I would have also put the back of her dress a little more to the center of her back, but it looks nice how it is also, just like the dress has slid a bit. Your are definitely very good at anatomy, and shading. My favorite part of this piece is the scarf. I love the how you made it opaque and gave it little flowers and stuff. Good job!

Thanks for the crit!
I'm so bad at hands, I swear. I'm working on it, and I'm at the 'not always hiding them behind things' phase. >.<

I am too, don't worry XD We all go through that, the best way is to practice and look at references. Remember that no artist is above references!

That's a nice thing to think about, humanizes the idols a bit.

Yes, it does. Think about it, we all started in the same place. They just practice, maybe took some lessons and they are still improving.
By the way, do you use art flow studio?

No, I don't draw on my computer. I draw on my Galaxy note 4, Autodesk sketchbook.

I draw on my kindle, using art flow studio. I could never get the Autodesk Sketchbook figured out, unfortunately. I like Art Flow though.

I've never worked with art flow, so I wouldn't know if it would be easier, but I used to use a much clunkier program, and sketchbook works great for me. Was there something specific you had trouble with?

Just the difficulty of switching brushes XD

Ah, I just did a toggle function. You can change the corner buttons so that one of them is 'previous brush'

The anatomy looks consistent and the her body'sΒ angle in that positionΒ is spot on!

Aw thanks. I'm trying really hard to get anatomy right, so that's awesome to hear
