Description (full view please somehow, it looks better )

At first, the drawing seems simple but i had a lot of trouble with the mouth (especially the mouth), the hair and the shirt. Couldnt get the shape right for the mouth, which is the thing that killed the drawing . The hair turned out okay i guess but still a lot lot lot more room for improvement. Had some difficulty with the shirt since i had to bring out the shine in it. the actress is wearing a silky shirt, which is quite shiny

Negative points aside, i believe i did a better job at shading this time. looks a lot more realistic as compared to previous works. comments welcome

p.s: This drawing is based on a photo of Keiko Kitagawa. I believe this does not resemble the reference photo to be named "Keiko Kitagawa", hence i leave it untitled. ref photo here [link] Will definitely redo this one, after im done with the current to-draw list.

p.p.s: due to the contrast of the photo, the drawing here looks a tad chubbier than the actual drawing

thank you i guess it just comes with practice, nothing to do with "naturally born talent"

Helo *w* Can i just ask; Is this people you know that you are drawing, or is it from your fantasy in your head?

All my drawings are drawn from reference photo. I'm way too noob to draw from imagination (so sorry for the late reply btw)

very nice. she is pretty. >.<
i saw the link and i see where your problem is with the mouth. its a bit centered to left, where as in the photo (the link) its centered to the right. maybe in the next time you re do this drawing again you can move her nose and mouth to the right. um i dont know if this helped out but great drawing.

thanks so much i agree with your observations. Also, i think the mouth is rather small, but somehow, when i drew it, couldnt bring myself to draw it any bigger
Anyway, i dont think i will be redrawing this. Not that im lazy or anything (well, maybe a little), but i thought that the drawing that i did, though quite different from the reference, is quite alright on its own

I think you did really well on this one. The mouth does seem like it would be really awkward and difficult, I'm not an artist though. I like it though, don't know who she is but you did a great job drawing her.

Nicely done!
I recognized her right away! Been watching Buzzer Beat lately, so I've been seeing her face a lot.

The placement of the features are slightly off, but other than that, your drawing technique is excellent! I especially love the hair!

i've never heard of the show until 2 days ago when my friend excitedly told me about keiko kitagawa being in the show and thank you for the kind words

Buzzer Beat is my favourite show right now! It's very cute! I started watching it because Yamapi was there, but I liked the other characters too. Kitagawa Keiko's character, Riko, is very likeable and funny. I'm working on a drawing of her right now, but it isn't going very well.

Great work I love the window blinds shadows.
I have one minor criticism - on the upper, left side her head looks kind of uneven. Maybe you could put some more hair to make it rounder? Besides that awesome

thanks for the compliments, means a lot, but the criticism, even more so i'd try to fix that when i redraw this i almost never get back to a drawing once i deem it to be complete. weird, i know thanks again
