I'm happy to hear that! You've clearly put a lot of thought and effort into your craft, and it's always really motivating to see people working to improve especially when theyre already pretty skilled like yourself!
ohhhh thank you so much for the detailed comment! that's some extremely good feedback! you didn't cross a line, not at all, in fact you made my day with the comment, since it shows you really thought about the piece!
I think you did an absolutely excellent job on this piece and I hope you dont mind me rambling a bit, not many people do long descriptions explaining things as you did. Like you mentioned I think the wiring looks incredibly good and your anatomy(nipples included lol) is really on point.
The lower torso wiring does make the 'skin' look thin, and probably just another pixel of the same grey shading on that edge would do it.
The collar area you say is flat I think provides some good visual contrast to the detailed wires, and really sells the idea that this is a manufactured and artificial thing, if you were to increase the details there, something like panel lines that suggest where the chest piece meets the collar/neck piece might be fun to explore.
For the skin highlight, I dont know if it's needed, the abscence again really pushes the artificial aspect. But it could be worth dropping the primary skin tone down closer to grey like f2f2f2 to get the contrast back
The green part of the head does look a bit odd, likely due to the angle of the head. You could probably size it down by like 15% and itll look more natural, or you could push the artificial idea further and make it less natural like squaring it off or something weird.
I would say there are some missed opportunities to continue the wiring/segmentation on the wrist, knee, and ankles, as those joints are all pretty similar to the ones that already have wiring. Which I know is a tall order since its a lot of exhausting and fiddly details but I believe it would have really taken the piece as a whole to the next level.
Now that's probably the most I've ever written for a comment, all in all I think this is an awesome piece that you should definitely be proud of, hopefully I didnt cross a line.Thank you for sharing your piece and your thoughts, looking forward to the next one!
