Yeah her mouth is too small, methinks. And lesse, the tattoo on her forehead looks offcenter. Like when she turned to look straight at someone, it would look...funky, in the bad way.

This is a beautiful picture, really lovely shading, but there is something ... off-centre about it. If you didn't use a reference, though, that's amazingly good.

Veerry nice. I like how the proportions are just ~off~ enough to give her a not-quite-tame appearance. Exaggerating the eyes really works well for the personality I see in her. And yep, that tattoo on her forehead is rather off, but to me it makes her look kinda primitive and feral and not quite sane. Technically the whole thing needs a little work (i.e. the tattoos aren't shaded consistently with the rest of the skin, some of the shading is a little blotchy, and the fishnet shirt?/tattoo? could be softened up a little) but I really really like her coz she's got personality.

Wow this is amazing!!!! I love it! (oh and look, I commented on this just over a year ago too). But yeah, I love the spider web looking thing, and the shading makes me happy too.

Lovely hair. ^_^ I wish I could draw hair.

Not bad at a realistic portrait. However I think that the ear is off. The part on the left side of the ear that juts inwards towards the ear is a bit too high and should be lowered.
