Hey guys,
I've recently been trying out some new techniques both with lighting and editing, and I'm excited to get some feedback. Not entirely sure on the background color, but I was kind of digging the texture. General notes or specific notes are appreciated!
Too intense expression in the eyes, no expression in the mouth, issue is that it doesn't match.
More background separation could help.
Postprocessing is good if it would be a bit more delicate, in the first image there is an aura around the head. I don't think it was in purpose.
Good luck.
