Description Some nights you can do it, you feel like you're on the top of your world, there's nothing you can't accomplish. Well, tonight is not one of those nights.

I had an idea in mind, and somehow just couldn't get the feeling right. She supposed to be vulnerable, but turned out to be "creepy"( like most of my paintings... Damn!)

Oh well.... Guess I'll just go back to Ezio and hopefully I'll get what I want next time.

Edit: I changed some details.

Vunerable as in scared? Try making the creases between her eyebrows slightly more defined, and look more for a scared exression?

I'd get rid of that background texture for sure. It really doesn't match the char O_o.
Otherwise looks alright (well maybe nose a bit strange but still fine... oh and planes bottom of face look a bit odd too).
People got weird ideas of what creepy is. For some if it's not sunshine and butterflies - you are a serial killer >_<.

LOL, in that case, I'm probably a serial serial.... killer~~~

And yeah, the background texture is a lazy touch... I was depressed with it half way through, so didn't care much of the background anyway.

She doesn't look creepy to me, just vulnerable. I think you got the feeling quite well, but that's my opinion. Nice work. ;D

she looks vulnerable to me, even if she is a tad creepy - nothing wrong with that, being vulnerable is a pretty creepy thing imo. I think the creepiness comes from the way her eye reflects light like a cat's, and the rather pronounced and darkened line and area on the underside of the eye. If you look at a real person, the top border of their eye is normally heavier because of the way eyelashes look.

Thanks, I think I paint most of my eyes that way, which is probably why people say I only paint one type of eyes. I'll twig it. and see how it comes out~~~ thanks for the suggestion...oh and I'll make the eyes less reflective.

She looks lovely though. I think you did alright though, she looks like she's in limbo between vulnerable and creepy. If I may, I would suggest the eyebrows be a little more "worried", crinkled, if you know what I mean. Like I said though, she looks lovely

Thanks I was thinking about the eyebrows as well, but I worried if I make it too crinkled, she'd look sad... Oh well... The subtle emotions are the hardest. I think somehow her forehead is too short as well, and I'm just too tired to twig it tonight. I'll sleep it over, and see what I can do tomorrow.
