Description
I've been a fan of Winona since I was a boy. It was movies like "Dinky" and "Mermaids" that made me a fan of her's. And I wanted her ever since. ...to draw of course!
Now, I was kinda quick with this one, mainly because I chose to focus only on her faice and not the hair. So: only 5.5 hours. The usual tools: el-cheapo-printer-paper + Pentel 0.5mm H and HB mechanical pencil + Cretacolor 5.6mm 2B leadholder. As always. And a rubber for some highlights (as the only "new" tool).
Anyways, I like eyes and lips in detail, but I'm not that satisfied with the overal result, something seems off. What do you say?
Update: I resubmitted it now due to some changes I made. I figured that the jaw/chin was too hefty, so I darkened it slightly down, and also (as suggested), made eyelashes and lines on the lips a bit less dominant (as far as this was possible anyway – thanks to ~nannermal for the heads-up).

wow this is very well done, its inspirational to me.. 5.5 hrs? I usually take about 1 or 2 hrs to draw a pic, which is probly why they arnt nearly as good as this. I think im going to try spending more time on mine and maybe they will turn out better.
i love this, good job.
*adds to favorates*

I recognized her from the thumb ^_^ I love Winona, too! I love her because Beetlejuice is my favourite movie.
Oh yeah, and awesome drawing. You captured her well (especially her eyes)!

I don't think it's off at all. You've caught the expression perfectly, and there's some stunning shading. For a comparatively quick drawing, it's amazing, and I can't fault it at all.

Makes you feel a bit better? *mutters irritably* Damn you depressingly good people. I'd be delighted if I could do something half as good as that...

Here, a little 
Now seriously, I'm actually quite grateful for my talent (thanks Dad!), but this one really didn't get out as good as I was planning/hoping. I'm really content with my other drawings thou

Amazing work. Very detailed, and the shading is very nice, too.

I can tell it is her, and I think the eyes are a good likeness, but it seems the nose and mouth are slightly different. it still is very good, of course.
the shading on the lighter side of her face is slightly rough as well, but this is still an excellent drawing

That wonderful
She has a very strong expression. Love the effect the sharp light gives, and her lips. They're beautiful!

great eye region... i agree- more texture on lips. (mostly on the top lip)
i feel like something is about to come out form her mouth
the region like under the nostrils is questionable ot me
coo jobs^^
reminds me of her roles in BeTalGeeuce and edward scissor hands

It might just look off 'cause you've been looking at it for 5.5 hours straight! It looks good to me

woah.... thats incredible! i love this one, and i know you think theres something 'off' with it, but i think that any small imperfection adds charm to it. the eyes are really something special. definitely deserving of a favourite!!!!

Really nice work, although I think the eyelashes and lines on the lips are a little bit too defined. Instead of individual lashes, maybe try using clumps of them? Just a suggestion, but other than that this is well done. Kudos for you.

oh no i like the over defined parts... i think it gives it more character but thats just me

hm, you mitgh be right. althou it was kinda my plan to do it as detailed as possible, but maybe i've overdone it a bit. anyways, thanks for the thought!
