This is a portrait of one of my characters that has gone through many different incarnations. I'm now nearing completion (I hope) except that her hair is giving me some trouble. It somehow seems to be not attached to her head and seems more like a  headdress than hair. I think this is coming from the strands of hair that tie around her head or it could be because of the shade of blue I'm using.

its to big compared to the actual face, so either enlarge the eyes etc. or make the hair smaller (i suggest redo the hair, so she wont have really skinny shoulders

allso, some work on the shadows cast by the hair could do wonders

Right, I forgot about the hair shadow... is this better? (I'll edit in shadows after the hair looks right)

These are the older versions.

Did you mean smaller as in the part at the way top being too large?
