Description This is my first speedpaint. No sketch, no lines, just done on 2 layers from scratch. I think it looks fairly decent, i was practicing faces, i dont do enough of that. Plus one of my weakpoints is still drawing good female faces, so i went about challenging myself. Tell me what you guys think.

Makes me think of Shiva of Final Fantasy games.

She kind of reminds me of Medusa. It's the hair, you know, with the thicker clumps and wiggliness. Looks like snakes to me, only they all seem to be headless, oddly enough.

As for an actual critique, I agree with much of what was said before. when practicing female faces try leaving out the breasts, and the clavicle doesn't seem to flow smoothly into the shoulder. The middle of it is also too far left. While it is true that the "u" shape is even with a womans cleavage, it's also true that it's exactly centered below the neck. Other than that it's really good for a speed paint. You did a fantastic job with the light and shading.

Very ethereal and beautiful. The eyes seem a bit off somehow and the right shoulder doesn't look like it's separate from the collar bone and chest.

You did wonderful on this one. I can never master drawing realistic humans, just animals and such.

Anyway, she must be a princess.

this is cool, does come accross as female to me, the only awkward thing i see is the position of her collar bone, kinda off, but great hair, eyes, and lips(especially lips) lips annoy me, i still got a problem makin them look real

Not too bad altho if I were you I would practice JUST female faces without say boobs to prove it's a female, that is if you want to learn how to draw females look female by their faces not their bodies.

She does look pretty feminine tho it seems you suffer from what I like to call Angelina Jolie syndrom... kinda self explanitory really, about 50% of alot of my females turn out looking like her and I have to actually make an effort to make them look different.

Sorry for the late reply, yeah i agree with what you said. I keep meaning to do some from reference female portraits, time eludes me though

I like how her hair and eyes turned out. The shadows are also interesting.
