Nicki Minaj

Now going from top to bottom, the shading on the hair where it hits the shoulders should be lighter and then return to the "middle" colour. Also the fringe is too straight, if you look at the picture you can see it is slightly curved and should probably be more like that. The things on her boobs look like they should be a bit more circular (probably by making it 1px higher). The dress has far more colours than necessary, but saying that you don't really need to care about colours for something like this. The lack of a black outline on the dress also makes it look a bit out of place, either nothing should have a black outline or it all should (in my opinion). The belt honestly looks like a bunch of colours just dotted around and discredits the rest of it. And a final point is that some shading on the skin seems to be missing at points where it should be. I'd comment further but I'm pissed, but it's better than the previous graphic.

Thanks for the feedback. I decided to improve on what you said; these are the results!

I did two, one with and outline and one without as I wasn't sure if the dress would still look good with the outline, as it is meant to be made of netting which is sorta see through.



Still couldn't do the shoes. LOL!

With the dress you should probably make it a bit smoother on the bottom. Anyway with the see through effect, you need to address that with how different it looks on the legs and on the other parts of the outfit. Looking at the reference picture, there is part of the dress under the netting bit which you would be able to see. I advise you back up and delete the bottom of the dress, create these parts and if you have a decent picture editing software, make the netting part slightly transparent over the other parts. If you don't, just take what you have there and add a bit of red into it.

Oh one final point, looking at the image it looks like you wouldn't need that top black outline on the boobs.

its really nice, well done :D

Much prefer the one with the outline but like what is said above, the netting part should be sorta see thorugh so you need to take into consideration the position of the legs under the dress

Better, but you removed the a necessary black line where the dress cuts off on the neck, that should probably be added. Also I know in the ref. picture she is pouting, but it may look better if you make her have a straight face.

I think there's only two obvious ways to improve it now would be to at it from a side angle, but that would be changing the whole thing :P. Perhaps try that angle in the future, and perhaps try and lower the colours but apart from that I can't offer much more advice.
