All the detail here is perfect the way that it is. The shading you did right for the most part. The hair could have some more shading, but even without it. It still look really good no matter what. The face detail is perfect and especially the cheek bone. You added perfect amount of lightning on the facial feature and this is a job well done.
This is one of those images where you can feel it's a real person looking right at you, credits to you for capturing this. Technically I think the hair on her forehead is the strongest part of this image. Here you have managed to get both volume and contrast. Why ask what to do with her hair, you know already...
All in all, an image with great potential. Keep up the good work!
Here is my critique:
It's a well drawn cheery portrait! Her smile is so pure.
The shading is good, especially at the cheeks, they really follow the contour of the face.
The details of the strands of the hair is admirable.
Her eyes are definitely her best feature.
The only thing that is visibly off is the shading of the hair at the outer parts.
It gets a bit shabby outside there and doesn't really show the tones of her hair.
Some parts look really glossy so I'd assume there's a dramatic light source but at the same time the shading evolves to become less glossy so it confuses me as the viewer.
The left part of the neck has an unknown darker part which I believe would be the shaded area, but it is quite abrupt.
Try giving it a more gradient tone, like what you did with the right part which looks fine.
As for where the portrait ends, it is a bit abrupt.
Giving a faded out tone would help to make it look natural.
There is also a black line at the top left part of the paper and it is ever so visible.
Thanks for reading this! I hope I make sense and do not confuse you.
Anyway, I'm very glad to see you improving during those last few months. I'm sure you're properly proud of yourself as you should be. Just don't fall asleep on laurels, all right?
Summary: Regarding the drawing itself, you know well you've quite outdone yourself.
i'm definitely not going to fall asleep on laurels)cause i'm not proud of how i've done blond hair and other stuff..))
