First Digital, need critiques

[arpace]

Great face, and sense of colour.

The Nipples are too high and it makes your angel look like she has implants. Issues with the light source, and blurry edges.

The face is well done in my opinion, but the viewers right breast needs some work. The nipples look misplaced and the right breast looks bigger and misshaped.
Then as far I can tell I think your lighting is not 100% correct. Your main light comes from the viewers left side so you shaded the side of the face - but also you have highlights of a lightsource coming from the right. So I think the side of the face should be brighter than now.
I may be wrong since I'm not a pro...

you are right (both) these are the little mistakes you can´t see until several time has passed, but editors don´t let you do that, i´d like to post another painting but as the post title says these is the only one digital by now, i hope soon you can critique many more,
thanks for for the help.

The right nipple needs to be a bit lower and to the right ;p something is bugging me about the right ribs

I sort of dont understand the composition. I meen the angel has both its hands behind its back and theres blood coming onto it and its looking off into the distance (altho its blind) yet positioning itself asif to embrace the oncoming blood. I understand there seems to be a feshitist element in the garb and positioning. Is this part of a bigger piece or am I missing something, is there a narrative to the image?. The wings also seem to small almost asif they are ceremonial like the hussaria (polish cavalry) and not actually of any use. Otherwise the painting is done to a high class espescially the face, and its very nice for a digital first time image :).

that kind of cowl (dont know the word for that, sorry) is like the ones used in hunting with birds like hawks or so, like if the angel as a killer were resting, but there was no idea about it, i just took the software and started painting (by hand) from a photo of the model i liked because of the light, i just added the other things over the first image for practicing diferent materials, i used no references maybe tha´s why the wings are so small but i was more worried about the texture and light than in shape, what i wanted to reach is the look of my traditional paintings. it only took me about 8 hours so...
thanks for the advice
