Description

I need more practice drawing faces.
Humans seem to be a very interesting subject matter to many,
so I guess it's good to learn how to draw them.

WIP and refs free to view on Patreon.

EDIT: I tweaked some things - hopefully the face looks better now. c:
Thanks for the feedback!

It looks very good! She's got such an intense gaze~ The earthly colors are very nice for the eyes and you made the hair very well (which isn't much of a surprise since you do paint a lot of fur and such). There are some minor faults in the face like the ear position, shading of the nose and lack of shape/volume in the eyes, but it's nothing major. The neck is a big area where you could improve, it doesn't connect correctly to her head. But otherwise, good job!

Thank you! Yeah, I noticed the thing with the neck but I don't really know how to fix it. Time to practice necks :'D

Yeah, necks are more complicated than one might think xD

You are already doing very well ! But by dint of drawing we learn a lot ! Good work ! I really like the shape of this hair, it strengthens her thin face and her beautiful green eyes, it's very realistic !

Thank you so much! It means a lot because that's what I went for c:
I'm also trying to develop a style that I like, since I feel like that's what my gallery is lacking a bit.

The colouring and the artwork is very good. Only the eye on the left side seems a little bit odd in its shape (due to the perspective?). Good work.

Ah, yeah I think I made the head a bit too wide on that side as well. Thanks!~

Her face looks weird, but everything else is good

How does it look weird?
I'm trying to improve, so critique is always appreciated. If you wanna you could paint over it and show what needs to be fixed c:

Her cheeks make her look like an old person (unless she's really one) her neck is too thin (her face is too actually) her ears could be a bit more detailed and a little bigger and the nose somehow kinda don't fit her.

Gotcha! Does it look better now?

Aeonofthelight In reply to WindSwirl [2019-12-14 19:05:34 +0000 UTC]

There's still things you must improve, maybe you need to do more drawings, search for tips, i'm not a teacher so I think you can find better critique or tips.
