Those skin tones are lovely Anth. She is really coming along well.
Thanks Adele! Got some more time in tonight... Just need to get that hair done now and we're laughing!
That earring looks pretty good as well Anth.
I think it looks great Anth, she's looking lovely, great skin tones. I think her eye looks different as it's the way her smile lifts the one side of her face which looks quite normal to me.
Yes her eye is slightly higher but I think, like Margaret, the face is slightly tilted. But it could be normal for Jenny anyway.
Point duly noted Syd, thanks for the comment, and thanks for the replies Margaret and Adele - the position is certainly correct to the supplied photograph as I scaled and traced the original (set the dogs on 'im!) The slight tilt of her head, possibly even the angle I've shot the WIP photograph from, may exaggerate the assymetry slightly :)
I find it really interesting how faces from the western world seem to be more asymmetric than oriental faces. But the asymmetry is often what makes faces memorable. and recognisable. I have heard that symmetry makes faces more attractive, but I disagree. Symmetry makes a face look unreal/plastic. People often have a dominant eye as far as their vision is concerned, but it is usually obvious which eye it is by just looking at them. So celebrate asymmetry.
Having only recently been told that I have one eye slightly higher than the other by the Optician - it's taken 66 years for anyone to notice - I am all for celebrating asymmetry🤓
Finally got brave and started tackling the hair! Hoping to keep this progress up and get finished at the weekend.
The hair is beginning to look really good Anth - love those flyaway hairs!
I don't know whether Jenny will thank me for those flyaways Adele, but I think that they add to it. Need to get this finished soon, before I get sick of the sight of it!
