pnate: Thanks :) Yeah the hair was a pain in the a... :P I tried to do it like Serge Birault, because I don't know how do paint it realistically. http://muddycolors.blogspot.de/2012/12/h...-hair.html I'll try a different way next time. Thanks for the feedback on the composition... didn't realize it was such a strong division.. something to look out for next time. Thanks :)
crackedskull: Thank you!
Ok guys now I'm officially scared. Since three weeks or so I'm having a kind of uneasy feeling in my drawing hand, hence going over to do my warmup sketching with no-pressure rollerball pens etc, but it's completely unpredictable :( Doesn't really hurt, just a mixture of numbness and prickling on the back of my hand (from middle finger to the wrist) and makes me want to stretch my hand towards the inside of my wrist. What scares me is that today it didnt even take an hour to start feeling weird, and I don't know where it comes from. It doesn't feel like the descriptions of artists who fucked up their arm/hand/tendons by drawing, so I don't even know if I should keep it cool, warm, flex it, use it, rest it, ignore it, whatever. It might very well be just me imagining it because I'm scared of hurting my drawing hand (I know I can provoke headache and stomach ache through my psyche, so why not this as well), but I don't know.
skin in rain. not 100% happy. kind of stuck with how to paint skin.

also not too happy with this - hair is giving me trouble. too much highlights look stupid, less highlights look wrong.
