could anyone offer an opinion?

Hello Frankie

Nice start! Here are some more ideas and tips for you. Try keeping the highest contrast near the main focus point meaning here the face and armor. I would lighten up that big black mass by her cloak. And also consider introducing a different cooler color to really bring forward the warm reds and yellows you got.

As for the horns on her head. Make separate studies from different angels. Horns are complex shapes turning and twisting in several directions.

Last and most importantly I would like you to not get bogged down in details to soon. Get the composition and big shapes and values worked out first. Work zoomed way out.

Cheers, hope some might help

I'm just totally stuck on this. I started this in august, worked on it for a few days then gave up because I thought it was stupid. But I keep coming back to work on it, and I can't seem to move on. So maybe some advice is needed?


By the way, it's supposed to be a "double fanart" as in it's a world of warcraft drawing (although not in the style of) and it's a portrait of the singer "Light's" character she plays in wow.
