otherwise i like the eye, nice blue, and thick lashesIcon_razz

Icon_question Flesh tones usually incorporate pink and green and purple and yellow and all sorts of colors, so the "lipstick print" is most likely from me doodling with different colors in the face. Even if it was a doodle, I was having trouble with adding more depth to the face without making it look too stark, so I just opted to play with the subtler stuff instead. Not trying to make excuses, but just stating what's going on. :D

Looks like she's winking to me. Icon_confused Generally, one eye is closed and one eye is open when winking. Icon_wink And since it was from a view slightly higher than straight on, I opted to curve the lashes downward instead of upward -- also because it makes it a more... subdued wink than a super-happy one. If that makes sense? Kind of like a relaxed wink instead of a tight one. I might not have gotten that across very well in the doodle though, so if I mess with this anymore, I'll work on that.

Anyway, there are plenty of things wrong with it even from my stance -- the face is flat and the colors in it turned out more confusing than I thought, the shoulders aren't angled quite right, the neck isn't really well incorporated into the face, a lot of it's too sketchy to really make out what's happening, there's not a strong lightsource which helps add to the flatness, other things look quite flat, what's happening in the torso area srsly, wtf are her arms! Icon_lol And a ton of other things that would've been addressed if it were an actual piece and not a silly tablet doodle. :D

It's something I really would like to become better at, the tablet! So it takes practice and criticism. I'm a painting major, so painting is much more my fort?.

Again though, thanks for the comment! Glad you liked the eye and lashes (some of my favorite parts too!), and also glad you pointed the other things out. Icon_mrgreen
