I don't know what to do anymore to get this child's colouring right.

not sure if it's the shot or wether you used too much red overall. it's coming off very warm. The halftones on her forehead could be lightened a little more to keep it cleaner in the values. Overall you did a nice job and think it's just tweaking to make it better. Consider how I added more cools to the skin tone to make it more real. This is a bit monochromatic and thus it looks a little less like real skin tones.

Great job you should be very happy with this. I think the value on the left in the light where we would call her jowl you’ve gone a little too dark and warm but other than that, I really like it.

I worked over this a little bit on my iPad. He sure to be using a small enough brush to think about drying when you’re doing this. Get in closer like I did with the eye and try to be more accurate with your shapes. As you move to the other side, always measure across to get things lined up. Just be more specific as you move forward. Take note of other things I did on this overlay

This is challenging. I am just a bit confused about the dark half tones. .... when I squint they seem to fall for me into the shadow area rather than the lights. I did work from a laptop though which consistantly seems to change things. But my black and white printout also darkens the halftones. Does the darks end then at the darkest edge?......The colour vibration is very interesting. I would like to explore that more. Thank you Morgan. It was a precious class. (photographs taken in different lighting.)

I like your brushwork. You have a consistent style working here. It's not lifeless and dull. I like it. simplify the scarf to bolder big shapes of light and it will be a nice complement to the busier areas of the face.
