Criticism help please

I’ve been practicing rendering because I want to improve my art. Any critiques? I’m very new to rendering my art 🙂

generally before you need to worry about rendering, its good to get things like forms down

forms inform everything!

for example the hair coils are pretty much cylinders

i think if you got confident with rotating cylinders in space, the hair would translate much better!

this is so not what you asked though

my bad

i think your rendering is pretty good andrea but its usually the last thing you really need to learn. like the cherry on top.

i really love the style youve taken for the face

really cool and distinct

the one thing i would suggest is choosing a direction youd prefer to go with your rendering

for example, the face is super smooth, ?airbrushed? id say, but the hair rendering is done in a more chunky way

its not cohesive basically

but anyways wow i really like how youve done the face

its like a fashion sketch

super duper cool andrea

I know, this doing is mostly practice because I did something an art video recommended! I recreated a perfectly rendered drawing I found on Pinterest:) this drawing is mostly so I can see if I can apply the things I did to my own art without copying!
