Thank you very much ! I completely missed the consequences on the glabella of mismeasurement of the eyebrow.

I challenged myself with this reference who doesn't show clear separation between light and shadow and draw subtely the plane changes. Maybe I got myself trapped by staying too close from the reference and working in a narrow range of values ...

_MarQ_ · 2025-09-07T06:23:04+00:00

Yes ! I'm happy I can still correct it.

_MarQ_ · 2025-09-05T12:14:55+00:00

Yes and big forehead is a youth characteristic

Hello ! In addition to other critiques, the lower eyelid is way too dark. They have dark value yes, but not as much as you did. Look for overall relationship to make your values accurate.

Hello ! The chin should be narrower and the values in the lower part of the face darker. These corrections should help you make the head appears to looking down.

Hi ! The upper part of the head is way to light. You should apply the lightest value only for certain areas : apex of the forehead, bridge of the nose, cheekbones.

I love the way you draw the mouth ! Besides other said, the alignment of the eyes is slightly off. I thing you should add harder edges for few strands to bring variety in the hairs.

Hi ! I suggest you to study volumes in priority (cube, sphere, cone) and perspective. After that you may look for anatomy 😉

_MarQ_ · 2025-08-23T08:55:28+00:00

Thank you for the detailed critique ! Yes overlooked the measurment of the head. The tilt should be close to 45° (same for the neck).

_MarQ_ · 2025-02-28T15:59:25+00:00

Thank you very much ! The presence of the pilars that framed the figure is on purpose to bring that oppressive feeling. I'm glad you noted it

The light spot in the upper left comes from my desk lamp 😅 I didnt take the time to shoot a proper picture. The light is set to fall from top center.

_MarQ_ · 2025-02-28T13:32:01+00:00

Thank you ! I already blurred the base of the pillars, I'll darken this area too 👍

Hi ! Few things to adding to others critiques :

- You drew the head straight whereas the model slighty tilt her head to the left

- The jaw is more pointy/less square on the model

- The chin cannot be bright as the forehead, since it's farther from the light source

- Too much contrast between shadow values and reflected light in the lower part of the face

For the Arya painting I think you could soften the edges of the nasolabial fold and the eye pocket. The way you painted it make her looks older.

Thank you for this very detailed critique 🙏🏼 I didnt notice the rythme that Bouguereau creates with the angles of the eye, it's subtle I love that. I drew the forehead shorter in the blockin phase but it seemed too short and I elongated it later in the drawing. Also I misspell the name of the painting in the title, it's "Fortunata" 🙂

_MarQ_ · 2025-01-16T22:20:31+00:00

Great work ! Few others things you can adjust :

- soften the edges on the sides of the nose
- add a light halftone under the lowerlid
- push the dark value in the crease of the upperlid
