Beautiful painting. Is that your girlfriend? And if you're in love, god help ya

, it can do strange things to a man jk. Only critique I have is that her nose seems a bit too smooth(?).

Great stuff nevertheless

Thanx

and yeah this is my wife to be..
about the nose do you mean it could be more defined where it meets the face on the side where the light is strongest?
I can post a referance pic for you people to tell me if it looks anything like her but it's a totally different pose to this painting.

wow, she could SO kick my ass! so ill be nice=) yeah the nose needs more definition. as in around the outside edge of the nostrils. the corners of the mouth could be darker or blended into the face better. looks a LITTLE pasted on... the hair is very well done. the eyes are very nice but they look a little too sharp. a little pixelated. and the nose looks like its blends into the forehead without dipping at all. OK im gonna get my ass kicked. overall its very well done. i think with a few minor changes it could be great.

Wow king! You always impress me. Anways my crits:

My favorite part of this peice is the hair, the top of the hair where it meets the scalp, amazing.

Things that I see:
-Hair loses quality as you drop down. What I mean to say, is that it loses definition.
-Right eyebrow (her left) seems to go in instead of out. It's look like her eye socket has a dent in it.
-the right eye (her left) seem to far away from the nose, just barely, just a tiny bit.
-head is longer and narrower than the photo.
-jaw needs to be more square.
-the lips are rendered beautifully, but they seems sorta pasted on, like they don't fit. Mostly because they have more texture than anything else, except the hair.
-collar bone seems funny to me, like it is the wrong angle.

I hope these nit-picking crits help
