I think she's adorable ^^ and believe me, that's not a pig nose. My noses were pig noses until my friend complained about them so I made em thinner. ^^;; And this is soooo cute! And happy! And brightly colored! ^^ Wunnerful!

This is a gorgeous picture, it looks exactly like one of my D&D characters by the SAME NAME!!! (Her mom was a bard, her father the god of the moons.) I love the way her face is angled and as for the bird, well, it's cute, looks almost like it's made out of a gem.

Ah...the joys of the random button. You never know what treat you will come across.

The angle you chose for the head makes it difficult to do a nose without it potentially looking 'piggish'. That said, I personally think you did a splendid job in portraying it. The angle is almost perfect. One thing I've personally found to help avoid the 'pig' look in color works is to lighten the dark areas of the nostrils. Unless a person has a lot of dark nose hair (I doubt this lady does ;-) ), a color similar to the darkest shading of skin tone you'd use often works...it helps keep the contrast down.

Still, I don't believe it's anywhere near as bad as you think. Overall, the work is very pretty. The colors chosen are perfect, as is the skin shading, the highlights for the hair, and the detailing of the dress. The petals floating about just add to it.

It's beautiful...and multiple time better than anything I ever do in color without hard lines.

your picture is wonderful and i love the way you drew the girl she is beautiful but since the story is called nightingale I would figure the story would be about a nightingale, So my advise for you is maybe show the picture of the nightingale better plus I'm doing a report on a nightingale and can't find any information on what it looks like this is the only thing and your picture isn't even real.but you do have my comments and i hope you don't take it the wrong way, i do like your picture after all it's just me Denis the Menis peace out.keep up the good work!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Why are you so hard on yourself all the time? i think it looks lovely. you have rily got to lighten up on yourself and anywho, not everything you do is going to bee or has to bee perfect, that's life.

still, i love your pitcher and think you did a wonderful job, Keep up the good work!
