New Portrait (traditional)
3yr
W.I.M.U
Hello!
This is my newest traditional portrait. It was a lot of work and fun, what do you think about it? Istill need a lot of practice, but are my proportions right? Or does something feels off? I still struggle with drawing hair and clothes, hopefully it doesn't look too bad. Critiques are welcome!
Thank you for reading this and Happy Valentine's ;)

Hey! Great job on these, there isn't really much wrong in the proportion or structure department that is standing out to me.
What I'd say is organize your shadow shapes a big more clearly. Right now everything is in the right spot, but it's hard to tell what exactly the shadows are doing on the face. This makes the rest of the forms more ambitious and as a result detract from the overall structure of the drawing. I'd recommend looking at the Bargue plates to get an idea of what I'm talking about.
I've included one below
Good luck!
Holy shit,that's a really good drawing,your value structure definelty improve than before (did you bought darker pencils?).You have better face structure,(it doesn't look like it's being squashed)and The hair has better value control!
If I have to give a critique,I think you made the upper lips a bit too light,I think it be good to darken it a little(Here's an example by Erik Gist).Also even though the reference show her gums in her teeth,I recommend altering it a bit and not making it too obvious.(Here's an example by Elvgren,observe he doesn't draw the gum in between teeth and only drew the one above the teeth)I also say the ear needs a bit of work,like for example here's a vanderpoel,there is a dark outer part in the ear that I feel is too light on your drawing.
But all in all,Dude fucking well done man,you improve a hell of a lot!
(P.s. the drapery on the shadow area still need work,I didn't wanna go into detail because it may be overwhelming ,so I'll just leave you this video https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=S1eR1rcPlHc Also happy valentine too)
