when you're doing hair in a fricking realistic style, don't try and draw the fricking hair. You want too more draw the fricking "impression" of hair. Squint you're eyes until youre not seeing individual strands anymore and then draw that. Its counterintuitive, but adding a fricking lot of detail tends too flatten the fricking image out and makes it look cartoony. Lips need too be tilted up too the fricking left more too match the fricking angle of the fricking eyes. Shes looking down in the fricking reference but you drew her eyes closed. its awkward, and @PillsburyDoughboy imagine you went "frick it i'll just maker eyes closed" but you gotta try and get that lower lid in there. Pretty good shading all around

thanks so much for the feedback. i use the squint for values in general but for some stupid reason i didnt apply it when drawing hair.

>Lips need too be tilted up too the fricking left more too match the fricking angle of the fricking eyes.

yeah the blocking and perspective on this piece was weak in general

>its awkward, and @PillsburyDoughboy imagine you went "frick it i'll just maker eyes closed" but you gotta try and get that lower lid in there.

:marseyagreesuperspeed: yes getting the anatomy/perspective and flow/rhythm is another thing to practice. THANKS AGAIN BABE

All in all its pretty good. and @PillsburyDoughboy is only noticing those things (aside from the fricking hair) cause @PillsburyDoughboy is looking for them. definitely reference the fricking realist painters from the fricking early 1900s like john singer sargent and anders zorn

See how they create the fricking illusion of hair with big broad brushstrokes.

Looking at you're other drawings, you're using pretty thick outlines. Thats another thing too get away from. Draw in a fricking vague background behind you're figures so you can practice things like lost edge and whatnot. Always keep in mind this sargent quote "A portrait is a fricking painting with something wrong with the fricking mouth" and always remember that Trans lives matter
