Hey All!

So I have enough of a body of work that I feel like I'm developing a style I like.
I just finished this head:

anime head


(it is for auction herebtw).

So i feel like i'm narrowing my interest in making heads. I think "Pretty Pink" is my best work so far. Here's some examples of my development. What do you guys think about this style, what are some pitfalls, what do you find interesting and boring

bandaid - First Attempt



mutton chops



shut. up.



Hunter



Ravvine

pretty pink

Jodarok....You're right, dude. I get lazy on the hair...its pretty chaotic and mediocre the way the highlights and shadows don't match up.

Also under the heads....I can never figure out what to do under the chin.

Good pointers...thanks for the tip
LOL

Because I work on the face first and when it looks awesome then I say to myself, "Alright, lets throw some hair on this thing so I can earn some TC"

I have trouble with the hair because it is such a huge area of uninteresting details. When I have tried to make detailed hair in the past, it just looks like a pumpkin...

Please share any good examples you have of well-done anime hair, espc girl hair. It looks crappy cuz i've been avoiding the fact that I don't know what do do with that huge area of texture.

Side-note...it's raster art although it looks vector.
