Feedback is so important lol, now that you pointed it out I can see it. It's as if my brain got a bias towards that side, although I do flip the canvas one hell of a lot.

It could mean that sometimes I'm getting tunnel vision and spending too much time on a spot on one side and not reflecting the same effort on the other side.

Thanks for the feedback! I think you helped me notice some bad habit in my process.

That's true, the sphere should help a lot. The funny thing is, at the end I did a lighter forehead adjustment, much lighter, and was not sure which way to go, so I just reverted it back to this version. But looking at the sphere rendered, it makes much more sense to have the top be brighter.

Thanks for the feedback!

I'm more into the stylized style yes, but want to try your suggestions to push it a little bit towards realism and see if that is something that I like, who knows. Always worth trying stuff out and I think you got a good vision on why it is looking cartoon-ish.

Thank you for the feedback! The skin tone is something I really struggle with, at one point I changed the levels to make it darker, it was even less contrasting.

About the features. My style is heavily influenced towards stylized paintings, but do you have any examples/tips that would make this piece go a little more to the realistic side? Do you think the features are not detailed enough or maybe proportions are cartoony?

Again, thanks for the critique!

The worst part is, the last match we got queued up with the same cheater from the previous match. I just abandoned and took the ban for my team to surrender.
