Looks really good!, I like the face ,but I am not so sure about the arms though, the right forearm appears to be...ummm stronger than the left one( it looks kind of skinny). Other than that I think looks awesome!:beer: :applause:

it looks great!

my only critique is that the eye on her left hand side looks a bit over exaggerated...But only my opinion...:surprised
anyway...
nice start on the color and good drawing:thumbsup:

2 crits: the eyes look wrong being so differentin size, and her left arm looks so thin so thin...

Still, a lot better than my sketches. Keep at it

the arm can always be fixed when i start painting it. as for the eye, i was trying to for that "Rock" look i guess.

HAwk I was wondering how you get your skin tone to look like that in PS is it a Gradiant? If so how did you acheive it I am trying to learn how do do so that I can color some of My own.

BTW I am very new to Photoshop But I have 7.0 Can you lend a hand in the tecnique dept.? Much appreciated

here's the latest update on Lola...

http://www.wam.umd.edu/~mfhaque/images/WIP/lola5.jpg

my next step is creating a background. i might end up doing something really simple.

Stonefist: i basically start off with a solid skin color, for an example a peach color or something close to a skin color. then i pick something darker and using the airbrush, i start adding depth to it. next i take the burn tool and make some areas even darker. lastly i take the smudge/smear tools and blend everything.

i hope that helps

Whats your intention in the eyes ? One eye its WAY more bigger than the other...

The rest rocks!

i dunno what the word for it but i think its called an "eye jammey" or something like that. somewhat what the Rock does in WWF i guess.

i think i know what i'm missing, wrinkles between the eyes or something.

i think i know what u mean..

i guess one eyebrow has to be straight .. and the other leaning a bit like it is now..
wrinkles around the eye also would help.. and the eye itself (what shows of the globe) is not smaller, but squashed a bit.. like the lids are closing but the globe is still as big as it is inside. also theres a little bump below the eyes.

Yeah, I know what you mean...
When you raise one eye-brow, and close the other eye just a bit...
Well, the eyeball can NEVER change its size, of course...
Just like Khannalxy'tys said, it has to be like the eye-lids are closing on the eye-ball, and the eye-brow of the closed eye has to be straight, or even bent downwards slightly...
Other than that.... WOW! Great stuff! :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

I really like your work hawk. It's some really good stuff. I think it has a nice anime feel to it, and I loves me anime. :)
