    I now realize when I look at something and draw it, it looks hella better.

    CLICK ME PEEPS

    Before any of you say it, I know the right eye is higher than the left, I didn't realize on it until I inked it XP

    HARDCORE Critique, pl0x?

    I really like this drawing... Yeah, the right eye should be lowered about a centimeter if you try to re do it.
    I really like the colors you did on the hair, it's a great color, but i see a strand of purple or pink... Is that part of the hair?

    The pinkish colours were there to help darken the shadowed parts of the hair, kinda like how I used that light violet on his chin. But it smudge weird when I was blending it all with the white pencil, resulting in how it looks a bit weird.

    Ahh i see now..
    The colors under his chin match lightly towards his skin color. The skin color though looks a little yellowish.. I'd go for a peach color. It would make him look more lively.

    It's not the actual placement of the eye that is the problem, but rather the way that you inked it. The eyes -could- be awright placed like that if you hadn't made the line of the nose go up so far- let's say you'd have stopped it just before the line started to turn to the right. The drawing looks awkward because the angle of the nose and the angle of the eyes don't match up- so if you'd like to keep the nose the way it is, you'd have to move the eye, but the easier thing to do, like I said, would be to attempt to make that line end sooner. I'm guessing that's why you didn't realize it until later. Sorry if what I just said didn't make much sense. xD It does in my head.

    I'm not even going to ask why that thing in the corner is there. o_o

    Coloring seems good, I like the eyes.

    You've done that thing lots of people do that is putting the eyes more towards the top rather than in the center. Eyes are not naturally like that unless you're trying to portray him to be looking up...? If you are not, I'd try and make them be in the center of the eye instead of towards the top.

    The left eyebrow seems like it should be curved a bit more to match the shape of the face.

    ^_^ Sorry if I was harsh xP I have no scanner therefore none of my drawings are up. D: but I still draw.

    Eye on the right (his left eye) should be lower then the right one, due to perspective, because his head is angled and leaned a bit, you made it the other way around =/

    The mouth/lips are too small if you take in consideration the distance between them and the nose.
    Also the person needs an ear, I know you were trying to make it seem like it was covered by the hair, but you revealed his face a bit too much, thus making it seem short and not big enough to cover the ear(s). I suggest you either add some more hair and cover face towards the cheeks a bit or you add an ear.

    And yeah hair is a bit choppy >:

    The eyes are lopsided, everything else is good. 14
