    The song is so pretty :3
    The pic to, the colouring was lovely.
    One thing is the propotion on the face it's not to good.
    It's longer on one side than the other one.
    Awsome colouring, and the rest of the pic looks pretty balanced.

    I'll have to agree with K a i r i on this.
    The coloring is lovely, but the face does look longer on one side.

    I can understand why you'd think one side looked longer, but its actually her hair covering her right side. But now that I look at it, it looks more like the face, not the hair. But it actually is the hair. :/

    I see that now, but it maybe been handled out a little different. So we could notice that with once.
    But it's still very pretty and now that I know it I see it a little better :3

    As said earlier the face. You say it's the hair, but there still seems to be something peculiar about it. :\ Her hands are also kind of unnatural, they could be a tad less static. Her torso looks somewhat masculine and the transition from bust to ribcage is wierd because her breasts seem as though they're supposed to be defined by width, yet they lack volume appearance and seem high on the chest. The folds of the clothing too: Is her dress wet? It looks that way by how heavy the wrinkles are and how many of them are at the top. Clothing doesn't normally act that way, regardless of the fabric. Try to make a few wrinkles, but don't overdo it. Also, there's some stuff regarding them I'll post in the next section.

    I'm going to have to disagree on the coloring statements though. The main light source is obviously below her, but this isn't reflected anywhere in the picture. Her face, the clothing, her hair and virtually everything else shows direct light source. The wrinkles show shadows on the bottom, though logically if the light is being emitted from below her they should be on top. This also applies to the face. It appears that you did catch this with the eyelids, but since the light is so incredibly bright that it glares out her legs, I think the shadows that result on her face should be equally dramatic. The hair has random highlights in it. Evener tones will help keep it from looking tacky.

    And on a random note regarding clothing folds, if her clothes are so tight that whatever is blowing up her skirt is stopped at the hips, why are do they look so loose from that point on?
