Stop touching it, it's finished! go start a new one and worry about that instead!

This drawing is magnificent. It's been thrilling to watch it develop. The only critique I have (which is minor) is that the part of her veil between her arm and her face jumps out too much, to my eye. It looked at first like a second arm. If you brought down the contrast between the veil and the sweater, that might set it back where it should be. Other than that, it is perfection.

Oh dear.

Thank you very much for the kind words. I see what you mean about the veil. You are righ, no doubt it is jumping out. I will try to adjust.

Thanks for looking and commenting again..:)

I just looked at the reference photo. The shadow on the veil is as dark as the one on her cheek. of course, I know sometimes we have to fudge a little to make drawings work. OK, so it's not quite done, but almost!

I think I should only put more dark to the the sweater and leave the veil as it is. This will fix the problem I believe.

Amazing! I love it! The sweater looks amazing, her eyes are beautiful! The only thing I'd say is that the left side of her face (our right) could go a little darker, but that's no big thing. It looks great :D I'm glad to see it finished!
