Impressive! Most impressive.
A masterwork pencil draeing such as this one proves that while photographs may capture the shape and shading of an object perfectly, they can hardly ever capture the essence of an object.
Splendid work, fellow deviant!

When I first saw it, I thought it was an actual photography. I love the tatoos and the expression of the woman. But what catches my eye the most is the hair. The texture is stunning. The way you draw it, I think it looks like a drawing but it also seems realistic (two opposite, awesome!!!) Compared to the base, you made it cleaner and less messy.
The black and white colours with the grey background you've made are nice too.
What bugs me a little is the diamonds (?) in the hair. It seems out of shape and spoils this wonderful hairstyle. (Though I can imagine you wanted to stick to the reference?)Β
That's a really good job you've made. I'm gonna look at your other works!

Awesome! This looks simply amazing, most notably because of the angle of the head and the contrast between the light skin and the dark, dark lines on her face!Β It looks so realistic I thought it was a photo at first! Compliments especially for the shadowing and falling of the hair, and the lashes respectively.
I also like the crystal gems in her hair, it makes her look very proud. The only thing that is a bit odd is the neck area, it's all so dark it looks as if she has no neck at first. Other than that, though, this is one amazing piece of art!

Hello! I'm from ProjectComment and felt compelled to give you feedback on this wonderful and stunning piece of art you've drawn. You've done an amazing job on her hair although the randomness of the strands on her left shoulder look a bit out of place to me. I personally think that area would of looked more realistic if you used the black on white rather than the white on black. Remember, this is awesome, and that's just a personal preference. I see you've not drawn in the strand of crystals on the right side of her hair. Is there a reason for this or just an oversight? You've done a great job on her face! It looks like an exact replica of the reference. Overall, if I were to have to rate this image on a scale of 1-10, 10 being the best, I'd give you an 8 for your efforts! Great work!

It's still beautiful and had I not looked at the reference image I'd never had known they were even a part of what belonged in your nearly perfect drawing! You're welcome!

Beautiful work! The photo-realism is astounding, the incredibly detailed shading, highlights, and balance of fine detail with overall presentation is quite stunning
There is very little I can make suggestion on in this, just a minor shading thing. I may just not be used to studying black and white pictures, but to me it feels like the roots could be a little darker. Also, I know this is true of the reference as well, but the lips are a little hard to pick out. Perhaps if you added a smidge more pressure over the lips just in general so that they stood out a little more?

This is great, I thought it was a digital piece at first! I really like it, the contrast of the markings to the white face really make the piece stand out, and the way that you have made sure to add some stray strands of hair really brings the piece to life. However I would perhaps say that the markings need to blend a bit more into the face? Unless that was the style you were going for, it sort of seems like the markings were just placed on top of the picture in some parts, you did a great job of making the markings move with the shape of her face, but sometimes the shadows are lacking a bit, such as where the hair meets the face.
All in all it's a great picture, truly! This is just my constructive comment

Thank you for your advice! You're right about the marks, blended in some parts they shoud look more natural. Thank you for giving me the leads to improve my subsequent artworks, I appreciate it soo much
