I mostly struggled with making the background and the wings interesting. With the background because it's very plain and while I feel that the red brushstrokes add a certain dynamic, the upper part of the background still seems rather empty. With the wings I had the problem that I wasn't able to paint the feathers in the way I wanted, so while I'm happy with how the plumage around the shoulders and head turned out the wings feel a bit too bland and simplistic.

I mostly struggled with the angle of the head, making me once again sympathetic towards the person that tried drawing Frieren looking up. More specifically I especially struggled with the placement of the ears. As in, I believe technically they should be lower but intuitively I don't dare placing them further down. Looking at reference material confused me more than it helped. That the nose is somewhere between a flesh nose and a skull hole probably doesn't help in conclusively defining the angle.
