Description

Full view for critique please~!

cause: insomnia
progressing from right to left, all on single layer.

i really should work on 'painting' more than linework.
im terrible at colors.... trying to remember few things here and there back in sophmore/junior year about color drawing... @__@;
digital really makes it quite different, in a good way. no more having to mix the right color first XD
And I think the painting class I've been taking is helping a bit too.
I know i shouldnt work on detail this early, its turning more into a drawing at this point rather than a painting.. thats why im stopping myself now lol.
hmmm.... Maybe I'll continue this tomorrow night. oh yea, and no glasses cuz i cant really draw with them on while staring at the screen X_X;

i think your doing really well, the only thing i see is that yer nose and lips are kinda squashed on the proper left (that would be the right side of the computer screen.. painting terms get weird and backward). the most finished eye is looking real good, one eye unfinished looks spooooookeeh. anyway, dont forget to blend edges of color on the face ... but not too much blending. this stuff is hard to explain in type

p.s. i never draw/paint my glasses either
