A concept study as well as random training.

This is a sci-fi image although it's not really obvious here. Yes, her necklace is glowing. Comments and feedback appreciated as always!

MyPaint + GIMP.

It's beautiful, and so realistic, but the corners of the upper lips seem a bit overlapped on the (my) right side.

Thanks! Did some fixes to the mouth, hopefully better now.

The picture is great. The painted or tattooed curved lines maybe just a tad darker? Her eyes are wonderful.

That looks awesome! The face is good, and the neck and the facial features, all very proportionate. The hair looks really good too, the hairline and the places where it's pulled back. Really nice job!

lMouth still looks a bit distorted to me: protruding lower lip, mouth oriented towards viewer and something in the mouth corners I can't really put my finger on. Her right eyebrow looks a bit short (or the left is a tad long). The rest is plain perfect!

Excellent work, as usual, Griatch. I really like the purps and lavender, as well as the skin tones and lighting.

Thanks, glad you like it! Good catch, I will be going back to fix some part of the facial 3D plan based on this and other feedback I've gotten. I don't think it's anything wrong with the mouth corner anatomically, but I'll ponder it a bit. The left eyebrow "turns the corner" sort to speak, so they are both the same length - but possibly the far end has become too thin so that it looks like it ends prematurely, I'll strengthen that left eyebrow a bit, thanks for the feedback! OK, I'll experiment a bit with darkning the lines; we'll see though, don't want them to overpower the colours either ...
Cool thanks!
