Very nice study here, could use darker shading..

You would do well to learn to draw this pose from memory, it's a particularly difficult angle

That's a detail I think a lot of people struggle with. Soft shading just takes patience and a decent eye. Thanks

To be honest, I prefer a mixture of rough and soft shading. It seems more real you know? I meant peoples skin isn't perfect. There are subtle imperfections in all of us which make us unique. Capturing these little imperfections lend themselves more to capturing the essence of a person than drawing them perfectly. Although there is also an aesthetic quality to perfection which tend to move people to the other side of the fence. Either way, I really enjoyed this piece. You're welcome.

Great work.
From your women sketches this is my preferred ("kelly" would be the 2nd).

However, it is probably my personal preference, but I think the shadings on her face could be soften a little bit, as they are creating "noise" in her pretty face. And to create a focus pointing to it, maybe darkening or adding more shadows on her low parts would be interesting.

I think some details have been lost in the scanning transfer, but the overall balance is really well done. I liked her pose and the frame composition that it forms. And the overall shadings is great as always (wonderful hairs).

Keep up the good work.

To me your work looks really good!!
In my humble opinion, the improved shadows don't catch somebody's eye!

I'm very pleased that you enjoy my work. Don't worry about the english thing, the language has way more twists and turns than necessary. lol
