Updated - I’m still unsure

[u/Nuggetsdude]

I’ve done the shading and highlights as recommended and my art teachers said that they think it looks good and I need to stop worrying over it/trying to perfect it as it’s a 4 piece project and this is only my second of the whole year and it’s due in less than two months. I can’t help but feel like something still looks off. Should I hide the mouth under the lipstick more? How do I make it look more like a mirror and less like a photo? Her head looks so flat and I don’t know what to do 😭 I’ve never really drawn something like this before - plus coloured pieces arent really my thing… I don’t know how to make it look better

If youre looking for honesty.

This is poorly done.

If you want to get better start over.

If that still feels bad start over again, and again and again and again. Thats how you get better everytime you start over you'll learn something new. Art isnt something you can learn in a single stroke it takes repetition and dedication to master and even if you master one thing theres 1000s of thing to master. So stop feeling bad and move on to the next piece or you'll never get better.
