really excellent!!

#3

Beautifull.
Although the left eyebrow (her right) looks a bit out of shape.

#4

That’s nice. It reminds me of the potraits made during the renaissance. Good lightning and values. But in my opinion it’s in need of detail. Too smudged now :slight_smile: Try adding more detail to the eye area coz that’s the focal point of this painting. Try eyelashes and more intense reflections.

Nice work! It’s going to be great! :slight_smile:

Thank you, that is what I have fixed as well, much appreciated!

#6

Great picture! Lovely tones. It looks quite a lot like Anne Hathaway.

#7

Yes sir, that is correct, she was my reference image to this painting, Not that picture but one of a similar pose I wanted to paint myself and add my own vibe and feel :slight_smile:

#8

looking good! perhaps it needs some more texture around the eye and on the lips.

#9

Are you sure you posted the pics in the right chronological order? Looks like you applied an oil painting filter to a real picture

Then you painted it over and over. The hair on the right side of the very first picture shows the artefacts that are a result of the filter. Sorry, but … you know.

#10

Did you use the Painter IX.5 underpaint tool on this?

#11

I love luminous stuff like this, now I’m gonna have to look into that tool ^^…

very beautiful, I would personally define a few details like the exact curvature of smaller parts like eyelids and nostrils. Just because I guess. :slight_smile:
