Description did I spell the title right?

This is Alice, from my short story The Mirror I: Suspicion. Her full name is Alyssandra White. I doubt the story will see life here on deviantart, mostly because it's so dear to me, and I don't really feel comfortable posting it online.

Suspicion is the first in a series of 4 short stories. The next is Resentment, and the main character is Annalise I'll be drawing her next.

I have yet to write the 3 companions to Alice's story, but I have a vague outline/idea for them, and plan to work on them this summer. Maybe when I finish them all I'll post it. But I don't know.

Don't ask me how long this picture took. I wasn't keeping track. I used a .5mm mechanical pencil. No reference. It lost some details in the scan, but scanned better than a lot of my pictures.

The eyes looks a little bit too large, and the mouth too thin... Overall, you have done a real good work with the shading, congrats!

I know about the eyes. I realized it probably right after I finished the picture and took a good look at it. Thanks for the comment about the lips though. I didn't really notice since my brain was focused on the messed up eyes. Thanks for pointing that out.

Thank you! And yo really think the eyes are okay? I thought the shape was off and the irises too big... That makes me feel so much better that you like them. And thanks for the fav!

Thank you! Looking at it today, I think I made her irises a bit too big...

Haha, thank you. I guess big eyes make her look sort of innocent.
