This is great, there's a little bit of Natalie Portman, Stephanie Seymour, Amanda Seyfried, etc. I'm afraid the hands look a little off. Awesome though...

I don't know what it is, but i always seem to be fixed by a persons eyes when i'm drawing. Thus i tend to draw the eyes slightly bigger than they actually are (i guess it's a signature of my drawing style)

I'm glad to have been of help. You have got the hands exactly right, that's what the photo shows.

Really lovely drawing. I can see what people are saying about the hands but truly I reckon it's merely perspective that makes them look that way. My other half reckons she looks a lot like the 50's and 60's model, Diane Webber.

Mmmmm, interesting, the name doesn't ring a bell (i'll google it)
Thanks for the comment

And indeed it is perspective, the only think that i did wrong was the shading on the hand, and because of that the perspective isn't that obvious to a lot of people...

I must agree about the size of her hands but the rest is awesome. I enjoy the lighting and all the stuff she's got in her hair. Very nice.

i think the hands are too small (maybe just the fingers too short). but the shading totally rocks!
