I've never done the "back shading" before, but now I think I'll do it more often 'cause it looks cool. At least I think so.

I'm not very happy with her bangs, but after attempting to fix them before, I almost wreaked the rest of the pic, so I left it.

Other than this I think her head could be a little bit longer.

And a little tip try to invert the backshadow (darker in the corners of the paper light behind her), that will bring the person more toward the foreground.

I'll try inverting the back shadow in my next one, thanks for the tip.

I like her eyes too, and the highlights. I'm always doodling eyes over all my work.

And yes, it is a nose ring she has.
