I found a website that has a ton of pictures to practice your retouching skills on, and with that many I decided to try and touch up some hair as well, another big part of retouching. So, criticize your heart out to the whole thing, just remember that my main focus was trying to get used to coloring hair, and taking out any frizz, I didn't do a very good job on removing the hair, but that was because I didn't have a very good, strategy for it, I just made the BG black, and then used airbrush on 100 opacity to cut out most of the frizz.

Thank you and have a nice day,

I love retouching/enhancing. It reminds me of line art (which I love).

OT: It looks really good. There isn't much to say here. Nice job.

Thanks! It is good to hear I am doing a good job, despite that, I don't think I did extremely good job, and I feel I have done better, but this was just a little project for me at like two in morning lol.

The green eyes & pink lips look a little unnatural. Aside from that it looks good.

It wasn't supposed to look natural silly :P If I wanted it to look natural, I wouldn't have smudged/airbrush/healed it, because that would've made the pores pop more, giving a natural face, and not a silky smooth, baby like face. Thanks though :)

I overlooked this before, or it could bet retarded phone. There is still a grayish tired look under her eyes. Or was it left there intentionally?

I'm talking about the eyes also. You're telling me you were going for the eyes to look way over saturated and lose its detail?

Yes, I was exactly going for that, I was going for her eyes to pop, with a lot of green, everything in this photo that is there is intentional, except for the little grayish part under her eyes, didn't notice it until after I uploaded.
