Looking at this makes me wonder why this was posted on ProjectComment because this looks advanced enough that for most people, it would be hard to find anything that could still be improved upon. Were you feeling uncertain about some particular aspect or are you just posting to see if anyone can come up with something that didn't occur to you? This comes off as highly confident and there's a good balance between speedy strokes and meticulous small details.



One thing that I noticed is that the curvature of the right side (from her perspective) doesn't seem to quite work. The embroidery(?) on the dress would get darker where the surface turns away from the viewer because most beams of light get absorbed or scattered rather than landing in the eyes of the observer. The implied curvature is more shallow and doesn't wrap around like a 3d form. The left side with the purple backlight and the dark shadow on the other hand curves naturally and conveys a sense of thickness.



Something about the face is bugging me. I think there is some perspective distortion in the eye/nose region and her left cheek reads as larger than the right one. I know it gets really frustrating when something is slightly off and you know that it's probably reliant on some very minor thing but sometimes any attempts to adjust it just make some other element seem out of place.



I know I wouldn't have the patience to complete anything this complicated. This must have taken you a lot of time and effort and it's respectable that you don't go where the fence is lowest but obviously have high standards. I feel like I would rather play games than spend more than 4 hours on a single work of art. I don't know how long it took you to make this but seeing things like this makes me feel like putting more effort into art might be more productive than all the mindless activities I waste my hours on (like Facebook, for example).
