This is one of those pictures that starts out pretty ok, so you're like "Alright, I can deal with that." But as you go on, it mutates into this horrible abomination that you can't save no matter how hard you try. So what I need from you art fags is some critique. Can I make this any better? I tried using contrast on the face, but it made her look like she had a freaking mustache, and it wasn't good. I'm also pretty sure her eyes are leaning to the left. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Also, does her chin look a bit large to you?

holy crap, horizontal flip made her look like quazzimoto. Went to work on that, flipped it again, and fixed up some stuff. Does it look any better? I want to get her face down before I add details.

People come in all shapes an sizes, her chin looks like the chin of a person.

Once again- pretty neat. You got good faces, but judging by your other thread there, you can draw entire people good too.

Keep posting here, and if possible- try to post some completed pieces (trust me, I know how hard it is to make yourself finish stuff) and keep them ranging in subject matter.

Keep pumping out the arts like some sort of soulless art robot, and you will be SUPAR ART MACHINE 2012!

you fixed the thing that was bothering me - not that her eyes were leaning to the left, but that they were skewed on the plane of her face down and towards the left of the page.

Her face has less character now in other areas because of other changes you made, but overall it looks nicer.

Gugh, it did lose a lot of character. I can't get the eyes to seem quite right either.. I think it may be time to scrap the picture and start over with the same idea.

Perhaps! Sometimes that is the only way.

Although I like it, both versions.

The second one if purtier, but the first one could just be like, a fugly girl with a touch of the downs.

not enough people draw ugly people. Everyone draws hotties.
