So would you hate it if I just favorite all of your work? Your doing exactly what I thought I was trying to do about 20 years ago. But your execution is so refined in comparison.

This has a strange look to it, somehow rough and unfinished like the robe , but also realistic and detailed, like her face for example. I really like, it's original!

i think i know why it looks weird, to me at least.
it looks like you had reference for the face, but no reference for the body. the arm looks a little awkward, and the hand is stiff. the dress is gorgeous but i wish it had the same attention to subtle shading as the face does. if you darkened inside the folds and on the edges with some really thin layers of a tertiary green, (not so much that it looked actually green of course) i bet it would make it pop the way it looks like you want it to.
i like the strong outlines, but i'm not sure why they're thinner around her head and thicker around her arm and dress. oh, and the flag... the outline shows that it's flapping and has a wrinkle, but the heart on it isn't wrinkling with it.. that, and one other thing about the flag - if you darkened it just a little so that it was off white or had a little tint of blue to it, it would still read as white, but it wouldnt fight for attention with the ears. i really think the only thing that should be white is the ears - too much white in different places in a piece tend to flatten it out and make it look dimensionless.
those are just some things i noticed off the bat.
the design and composition are super, and i bet it'll look fantastic if you just spend a little more time working up layers of colour. what are the mediums you're using? looks like marker and watercolour?

I agree with you, the hand is way stiff and doesn't look like it's holding the watch. The face is definately worked more than the body and I dropped the ball with my lighting. It's inconsistent. Bahh. There are a bunch of idiosyncrasies with this piece that can be chalked up to neglect. Next one will be better!
I did use Copic markers and watercolors. I use these in most of my art. I'd like to start painting more but am so comfortable with the copics, it's been a struggle
I really appreciate your comment. It was thoughtful and helpful. I like that

Because she's the white rabbit. It seems like she should have a fair complexion.

lol okay, i get it now! I actually tried to give her white hair, but in the end, it didn't work with the composition. I started out wanting her to be wearing all white too, but that got thrown out as I went along.

wonderful colors. I like the background, and her dress the most.
Wierd is good.
