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!~

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.

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.
