Woah, those are some intense eyes. @_@ Her shoulders and collarbone seem unfinished but this is beautiful none of the less. Really nice job on her makeup and tears.

this is haunting.

i love the color palette; it's very warm but at the same time it's just mute enough to look sad.

excellent work.

It does and it doesn't. I recognized the painting right away from the lineart you'd previously posted. I absolutely LOVE the completed version.

Those eyes are positively riveting. It's hard to tear my own from them, they're practically glowing. I love her eyebrows (strange thing to love, eh?) and lips! And the way you smudged her mascara. That's realistic indeed!

Absolutely gorgeous hon.
