Young Woman (nudity) [Pencil]

[KillaRilla]

head seems a little small in relation to the neck and torso, the shoulders also seem a bit broad for a feminine figure and her right shoulder is slightly out of perspective, *take note the pupils should be located in the center horizontal line of the head, you could extend her forehead up a bit, as well as lower her eyes a little and maybe scale em up, or make them appear a little bigger by making other features a little smaller. Her left shoulder could have more depth, looking a little flat. Anyways its looking pretty good but if you want that photorealistic effect, just need to practice, maybe you could post a the image you referenced from, use imageshack so they dont mark it as porn lol. For that smooth effect those are drawings show, you could try using an oil-based pencil, just a suggestion. I look forward to seeing your next drawing!

Thanks for the feedback, Jeffromundos.

I agree with you about the head being too small for the rest of the body; this is very clear now when you view my drawing against the reference image. When I was mapping the drawing out, I had better proportions, but I think I was sub-consciously trying to stretch the image to the edge of the page so I didn't have to draw too far beyond what the reference image shows. I didn't notice the shoulders so much.

You're right about the forehead; I think I was supposed to draw the hair higher on the forehead.

I did post a link to the reference image in my original post. I was hesitant to actually embed the image because it is what most would consider softcore pornography and didn't want to offend any forum users. So, again, here's the link: Reference Image (http://img182.imageshack.us/img182/4325/1easastrs4gx5.jpg)
