I fixed a lot from five months ago when I posted here. The neck, ear and chest were just so outta wack 😭. It might be her eye throwing me off but I’d love to hear what others have to say :)

you have to know what and where is your light source, knowing what color is the light source like warm, neutral, or cool and knowing how that light will reflect and impacting the colors of the character.
for instance, you have a lot of reds (from the light) on the face yet that redness/warmness disappears??, that color isn't anywhere else or emphasize enough even though the light is hitting the shoulder, try to add enough warm to overall person not just at the face
like the example above, you could see how warm light reflecting on the woman, the circles are just examples how there is still warm and balancing all of the rest of the colors yk. there are other parts that I didnt add circle but you could see it yourself where that warmness hits

Okay thank you so much, this is super helpful!! I didn’t even see it. I really appreciate it! <3

Yeah the ear has been bugging me as well. Should I fix the placement or the ear itself do your think?

Oop- What shirt issue? Is it the straps or where her chest is?

Thank you! I really appreciate it 🫶🏻. I still have a long way to go to fix it haha

I think both, the placement seems a bit off, it might even be a bit too big. And the colors could be changed

Good point! It’s a bit too red and dark. I’ll change the placement for sure. Maybe a bit lower?

if the ear is an issue, you could just hide with the hair

Gotcha! I can definitely do that 🫡 thank you for the input!
karmic island
You’re welcome! I think it’ll look better after up

Yo ngl the thought definitely crossed my mind but it looked off without an ear 😭. Maybe cover the ear a lil with hair strands?
karmic island
Also with how the sun is on the shoulder, the ear would be lit up some too
Like the top parts

Haha that’s a brilliant comparison. Gives me a much better visual of what to do 🫡

or push her hair behind the ear
Oooo I like that! I’ve play around with it and see what I can do. Thank you for the ideas :)

Ignore my face but here I am directly under light (which I assume is how the drawing is supposed to be just looking at the reflections of the light) you can see how the top part is pretty light

Thank you so much! It’s taken me ages to get to this level and I’m still learning as I go :)

jezz, aren't we perfectionists? the pic looks totally fine to me, maybe the ear is a bit misplaced but the whole pic compensates, some areas are messy, but that's supposed to be like that, i am scared how perfectionists we are as artists, having finished drawings then coming back later and find stuff (i also do the same) some mistakes in proportions can be ignored because the whole pic is consistent in technique color etc, overall to me it's good, don't stop drawing!

Hmm, it looks fine but maybe we can learn why it looks off until we're satisfied. In reality there isn't a rush or a specific time to stop fixing mistakes in your art. So if they want to keep working on it, they should be working on it. I don't think this painting is finished as long as the artist believes that. Being a perfectionist isnt bad unless the artist isn't enjoying the process.
I feel like if they want more things to fix and learn from, it isn't that bad

i didn't saw it was bad to be like this, i said i was too, i just want to say something differente besides what everyone else says since there's not much to add
i have unfinished drawings, projects etc
i am on the same boat, it was more of a thought on my part
boreal palm
Oh I see, understood. Thanks for sharing your thoughts
I misunderstood on my part a bit, but it's nice to see your side anyway
rare falcon
i love drawing, i can talk about it all day, any topic, REALLY ANYTHING so, you will probably see more like that, sorry haha

Oh I see! Thank you. I can’t believe I didn’t see that sooner 😭 it’s so obvious now haha
meager solstice
Made some slight adjustments to my piece! Fixed the shirt of the left and added some freckles but idk how I feel on them tbh.
I also changed the eye color from green to blue but I don’t know which one looks nicer. And tips or critique would be super helpful :)
Also I turned down the highlight on her cheeks from the original (should be at the top of the thread) should I leave it or add the highlight back?

and under her armpit the strap still looks a lil weird
