Noodle nice, she is one of my favorites from the gorillaz characters!
This is a very well done color portrait of Noodle, and I can easily tell who the character was so that is very good. The color of the glasses pop compared to skin which looks really nice.

-As far as constructive criticisms I do not have many since I can clearly tell who the character is from the style and color choice. The only small critiques I would have is the collars line work it but that would be nit picking. And as far as shading on the head I always think of a ring, but your way looks perfectly fine c: what I think might help make the sunglasses look a bit more effective may be to draw the face and in a new layer above itΒ  draw the glasses and color the in with opacity so give the appearance of translucency.

I really enjoyed this piece! I would always watch the Gorrilaz music videos with my friends.

Thank you for the comment and the compliments! I will definitely lower the opacity on the glasses next time I draw a character with shades.

Gorillaz! This takes me back to middle school... I used to draw Murdock and 2D everywhere <3

Well I immediately recognized Noodle so you captured Jamie's style so well, and she is so cute! The shading looks so great, and I love the colors that you used - I also like how you did not just copy the artwork, it seems like you really made it your own!! Her expression is perfect too - she looks calm and cool but also happy and it just really captures her <3

As far as suggestions go, I don't have too much to say -- I would perhaps recommend blending the hair a bit OR not blending the face - since the shading is different on each part of her it looks a bit odd, but not enough to throw off your piece or anything, just something to consider I would also love to see how you would draw the rest of her... how is she posing? What is she doing? But that's really your choice, and the composition is up to you obviously

Great job, I love how far back this drawing takes me.

Thank you for the comment and the kind words! I understand what you mean about the hair and shading, I've been trying different things to help improve my art in that sense. And since you said the thing about drawing the whole body, I just might! I need more anatomy practice anyway.
