WIP, C+C on the shading on the face plz

whoa, pretty good. however, do some shading on the forehead. (do you really look like that? lol)

Yeah, I said it was a WIP and I wasn't done with it yet. And yes, I look like that.

Looks really out of shape. I mean, it looks like you have no forhead, and the head takes the shape of the hair >>

picture ref?

I don't know much about anatomy and junk, but the shading sure looks like it can come out nicely. I recommend you start hue-shifting as you go darker down, so basically make it a little bit more red as you go. Try contrast for the lighter colors too. You could even try a little bit more colors if you want. But yet, head does look disproportionate.

Well maybe its the ref I took of myself that had a weird angle. But I'll try working on the forhead area a bit

Alright, update. I finished the face and reshaped the head
I dislike the color of the lips, but thats the closest I could get to making them pink without it looking too much like lipstick

I'd say don't give the lips so much of an outline.

Agreed, that's what makes it look like lipstick.

Also, finish so we can C+C harder. :/

You know, it's hard to crit a self-portrait without the reference picture. Post that along with the sprite and we can crit more effectively.
