And yup: I have no email notification (never had) but since my fl is posting about this fro a couple of days now I believe the email notification still is fubar.
Would you really like some thoughts on the image? OK... I think that Hermione is really nicely drawn, and so is Fleur's hand and the window surround is lovely. But Fleur's face doesn't seem quite right. I wonder if you might want to spend some time drawing faces, lots of different faces, maybe just sketches in pencil or whatever. I think that this would really help your paintings :)
Ok yes, I definitely know that my faces are not perfect.
But well, since I have only limited time and I often feel that if I try to fix it more, I rather damage it more, I don't know exactly how to change it.
I like faces and I like different ones, but practicing is probably the best.
For this pic though, I totally appreciate the comment :) , but could you maybe tell me what exactly seems off, so I can try to fix it? But without having to change it all?(my gf already told me that the mouth seems odd)
The great thing is I can tell it's Fleur with just one look :D
What I see is that her features seem to curve around from her eyes, her nose is very long and slightly curving to the right, then her mouth is set to the right as well. Her nose could do with more detail. It is very long, straight and featureless, but then her nostrils are quite detailed, making it look a bit odd. I think the lighting on her cheeks and chin is very effective, but her eyes need more definition. With some portrait paintings by master artists, the eyes in the painting pull you in so you can't look away. It would be amazing if you could achieve that :D
I do think your hands (Fleur's hand) are excellent!

Agreed and will try to work on that.
One of my main problems is that I get tired of a pic after a while and just DON'T want to mess more with the details.
Thanks! :DDDDDD
