Help?

[SugarSweetVenom]

So after many grueling hours I finally finished my latest Beetlejuice piece, only to have Kinsei01 rip and reconstruct a new one for me. I admit it hurt my feelings quite a bit but after analyzing this picture I felt like everything she said about it was right. Instead f arguing with her or insulting her I swallowed my pride and excepted the challenge to do better. Problem is I need help, any pointers???

First off, kind of a weird piece... But whatever floats your boat right? Anyway, I don't think Kinsei meant to really hurt your feelings, its called criticism, don't take it the wrong way. Also, its a he. Don't act like a saint because you"swallowed pride" and acted your age, thats expected of you.
OKAY
As for the piece, there's almost no color in it, they all look really pale and strange. The anatomy seems a bit off, especially the face, I don't like the shape. Keep it up.

I know he didn't mean anything by it, I just take things rather hard is all. I'm not trying to act saintly despite the way I may have phrased it. Lydia Deetz is supposed to be pale, in the cartoon she's whiter than bone china and Beetlejuice is a pale shade of purple so my scanner must have not picked it up. Thank you for you time.

Sorry Kinsei01, I must have confused you for another artiest.

I know you already gave me several reviews but do you have any tips on wrinkles? It's on the top thing I have to work on ...

well with wrinkles, the thing that makes them is where the clothing remains baggy, when the clothing is pulled by a certain point or where the clothing bunches up because coming in contact with another surface.
Here is a small example, think of the red "X" as the point pulling the fabric in the right example. And in the other example, it is a recreation of the tongue wrapping around the blazer.

Ah, I think I get it now ... I'm working on a practice picture that I'm going to upload when I finish.
