Ei thanks for the visit... Hey you're so good! I like the shading you made on her face it looked real! But It will look more alive if you'll only put more details on her eyes like adding a shine and not plain black unless you did it on purpose. Well anyway it's really good!

The hair especially is good, even though you said you just sketched it in-- having the strands go from thick to thin is something reaaaaaally hard to do without pressure sensitivity (woe is me for my lack of tablet. >_<

I really like the shading on her cheekbones, and her lips. The only suggestion I could offer would be to maybe smude the shadow on the right eye (her left) by the bridge of her nose, and maybe soften the lines around her lips. There aren't "lines" persay there, but the color goes from skin to the darker color of her lips with no transition. Really this matters more on the bottom lip, where more shadow appears directly underneath it so it's blended just a tad more. Alos, the way her right nostril's shadow appears is such that it looks like there's a tiny bump there. You'll probably do this eventually, since it's a WIP, but her eyes need more highlights and shadow in the iris.

I know that looks like a lot of criticism, but it really isn't. Most of those things are so minor I don't think most people would notice. This piece is amazing already, and I can't wait for it to be finished. I'm amazed at your ability to capture her face-shape so perfectly-- her chin and cheeks are the exact shape of the actress's-- and that's really damn hard to do.

Amazing work.
