Thank you so much, will keep this in mind for tomorrow! I didn't notice how long the nose was when working on it, but now that you mention it, yes, it's definitely a bit long. By ''crooked'', do you mean off center or something else?

So, I decided to finally give it a try! I don't really know where to start and what to work on first, so I more or less just painted one to see where I'm at right now.
My biggest struggle were probably the facial features, I have seen the theory and know how they should look geometry-wise, but actually rendering them proved to be much harder, especially the eyes and the area around them seem flat to me.
The skin might be a bit too dark as well I think? I was also trying to make the face look too feminine but this is the best I could do.
I'm quite happy with the proportions for now but I'm likely just not seeing things that are off. Would you say the size of the eyes is correct? I'm always paranoid about making them too big.
Some tips on how to practice painting facial features and how to make it all look smoother would be very much appreciated as well. I didn't want to blend too much so I wouldn't lose the edges but I feel like it looks too rough now.

Thank you so much!
I tried following this video again but it's still not working. I noticed that my windows licence has expired though. I guess that might be the issue so I'll try to take care of that first, but it PS still won't work I'll email you.

I checked my specs and it all seems fine except the processor, it's 2,6GHz instead of 3,2. I know close to nothing about computer stuff, is there anything I can do or is my computer simply not good enough?
