[ZiG]

well, i wanted her to look a little more real, not quite so stylized. i don't know how good of a job i did though heh. as far as the breasts, i was kinda going for the hippie no bra sort of look.

Hey Zig, nice job.
Nice contours you got going there. It doesn't have to look like a model to be good.
Here goes....hang on....

That bulge in the crotch has to go. IT's too distracting and doesn't fit the female anatomy all you have to do is remove the left portion of that "J" line in her crotch and it will work better.
The problem with contour drawing like this, is that one simple line can define a whole area. See that strand of hair on her left cheek(our right)? it's pushing out the jaw, as if she has someing in her mouth.
It also looks like you through in some extra strands of hair that don't belong there, the one running down her face. this is causing too much tention in the face, maybe if you could make it heavier or show a shadow from it, it would be easier on the eyes. This may sound nickpicky, but it will make a difference if you do it, remove the line that is connecting the right strap (our left) to her top.

Your neck area needs some work. Your not showing the correct contours for the collar bones or neck muscles. this is a frontal pose, so finding a good anatomy pose to match shouldn't be hard. She how the hair runs into the neck on the right side (her left) of the neck and makes it look thicker than it realy is,maybe have it curle outward or inward onto her body.
This will work on digital as well as traditional media, grab a sheet of paper and cover up sections of your image. for this one, do it horizonally. This will help you see your mistakes in misproportions. You can also flip your image horizontally, and virtically to see your mistakes, if your using traditional media, use a mirror to look at your work.
Try to varry your stroke width also. Keeping the same strokewidth throughout, gives the image a very tight feeling and also makes it feel inclosed.

Very nice lips
that "highlight" line on the nose is too distractive, it's as if her nose is broke, try using a thinner line or remove some of that line.
the eyes are great! i love em. Maybe darken in the iris some more. It looks as if her right eye will fall out of her head, because the line that makes up the right side of her face looks as if it leads into her face and curves around the eye and heads upward. go ahead and close that space.
Try darkening the hair, or showing some indication of hightlights, right now it's too "spacious" looking. Too much negative space between the lines.
I think your proportions are very very close. You certianly have all the nice details that seperate a "man" sketch from a "woman" sketch...You got the high forhead, long neck, slinder shoulders, big eyes, big lips, heart shaped face, big hips...etc etc. You got a good eye for these things.
You have some nice work here, don't let my critique discourage you. I'm sure you see most of what I mentioned yourself. Keep it up, and post some more!
Any chance on you shading this? or are you done with it?
