Very nice, the expression on the face is looks good too.

But her left eye is green, it doesn't seem to fit in this picture, maybe blue looks better.

Agree with Enayla, captivating is the perfect word for this. I stared at that face for a good minute. Very freaky and intriguing. Love it just how it is, green eye and all.

Wow, I love it! The blues and brownish reds on the face give an illusion of metal and a feeling of coldness. Very Happy

I like it a lot gecko. The face looks vertically stretched but it might be intentional. Perhaps it adds to the bizzareness of her appearance. It reminds me a little of soundgarden's Videoclip for a song called "black hole sun". I love the colors.

You've really captured the coldness of winter into the character and to the colors of painting. Great work.

i fell in love with the idea of icicles growing from her hair down to her clothing. thanks for the many replies.

the face actually is stretched vertically, i wanted to have the face and hair stretch to opposite directions to make it look more bizarre. using those snowflakes on the pic is really weird compared to my older stuff, i guess that's what school and classmates do to ya.

is that green such a big thing? i think it fits in. there's something i like in this pic very much.. also, drawing people is slowly getting better. more control on the result than before, thanks for the sp-thread.
