Started off as a portrait study from some girl in a maxim mag. Took me two hours in photoshop with the brush. Some C & C PLEASE!!!

First time I do something this "finished" with the brush. I say "finished cuz i could always go back and finish it till its super detailed. But I like the sketchy vibe it has right now.

Not bad. My suggestions: simplify the hair, it seems a bit over-worked. Rather than trying to show so many strands, just streamline them into larger but stylized designs. Also, the eyes seem a bit off, especially the far eye: as if not looking in the same direction. The over-all facial construction seems ok, but the nose needs more definition. Really define the planes of the facial features. Always pay attention to your light source, where are the shadow and light areas, then base your values accordingly. The construction of the lips is also a bit off, very little especially that of the upper lip, not quiet centered...minor fix though. Hope it helps, repost any revisions if you can. :)

Hey talos, Davi, or sparth. Sparth especially, or just anyone. Can someone give me some feed back on the fixed version.

Hey, nice piece there. But I'm liking the first version of it better. It seems a little easier on the eyes. Nice work though. :cool:

[talos72]

Much improvement there....the hair defenitly looks better. The pupils in each eye though seem to be of different size, maybe you could make the eye pupil closer to us a bit bigger to make it the same size as the far eye. The nostrils can use a bit more work too....especially where the nose meets the face around the nostril, it still seems not as definied as it could be thus making it slightly flat looking. Also work a bit more on the chin shadow under the lips...again, maybe adding a bit of rim light or something to capture the roundness of the chin form. Just some further thoughts....you are definitly on the right track. Nice work dude!
