hey very good I like the hair.
I bet It'll look nice when you finish it.
The skin tone is perfect, and tho a bit puffy, her hair style suits her, the glasses, amazing^^ when working on it, don't forget to to outline her surface outline, it makes a character like spring out of paper if you know what I mean.
the thickness of her clothing outline as well as other things essential to a character are defined when you pick the right place to draw the lines..(but I'm sure You know that by now, you seem pretty good to me)

The eyes convey a natural emotion and well I may be talking a lot but to make it short, The character itself is awesome and I'm sure whoever you draw for will or draw will be happy. also, the drawing doesn't look as bad as you think it may look because of your laptop, the color is fine as so as the brightness...keep up the good work.

Hahahaha welcome.
well to start with, what I mean is ...Well getting to the point, the same line thickness you used for the hair, you also used for the entire body.
the line thickness makes a character's features come out more when you outline it. Not only does it seem glued to a paper but it cant jump out....the more you emphasize on those lines the more life you give your character in a way.
Example:
the eyes are perfect.
the lines along the pupil are darker and more notable than that of any part of the face. Which gives your drawing such a unique feeling to it, Ya know?
Now try top compare it to the lines you use doing the arms, and shirt and skirt...Instead of looking like its clothes ON the character...It resembles a paper doll with clothes glued or on top.

Tip of my own: the shirt looked cute on white lol
it seemed more of a school girl with it like that, reconsidering that japanese uniforms are like that. but just like u have it is awesome^^
nice work. im glad i could help.
