What about the neck & the area above the eyes?

I noted the neck and the area above the eyes myself and decided I liked it better as a mask of sorts, so didn't extend it to there purposely. It was an artistic decision more than anything else, same as the lips...the pattern just didnt look right there. Besides, the model has great eyes and I didn't want to detract from them
.

though you tried leaving to leave the marks from lips.. a small tiny part is covering the edge of left side of the lips.. please check it.. and needs a bit of feathering near the tear duct of right eye..

Corrected the lips and tightened it up a bit around her left eye. Rather than carry the pattern over, I darkened the neck area to draw attention away from it. Thanks for the tips!

Nice idea and a great effort....Good one....

Thanks a lot for such a kind words Nator

very good work

Haha, funny! :d

Thanks a lot for your valuable comments!

very nice work...... ( but I didn't understand why the vertical lines on the right side)...... Good luck

Hay thanks for your comments, its just a part of my imagination that's why I kept lines in right side...

Nice image, but the shapes really need depth, try using the dodge and burn tools to add shadows and highlights to the image.

thanks matt hope it looks better now

the left side of your image at the bottom needs to be fixed, you can see the blue background. I think you still need more depth and also try fixing the dark blue spots by the bird and flowers

nice design.. but yes ponti and jaescoe are right.. you do need to work a bit more on the depths..

U r getting there... author......keep up chopping.... gL

Good work.....And nice improvements...

Yeah i agree about using dodge and burn tool.And u missed few spots in masking author.But idea is very good,shapes are perfect.Work a bit on this one and u will have very good entry...best of luck

Thanks Matteo , Josh , Imtiyaz , Anoop , Govind and Nebojsa for your comments hope my work is looking better now, if you've got other suggestions , feel free to let me know

It seems that you're applying the dodging and burning to just one layer, the ffects should only be on the object (not spilling over into the sky)

improving good luck

this looks better.. I was just thinking that if u can add a small shadow of the birds beak on that petal?
