HAPPY BIRTHDAY
 !  A redo of SparkPlug: The Iron Tinkerbell. It's referenced from a photo on Corbis of a tall skinny girl that looked a lot like my sister. Pose was perfect, though, couldn't resist. I also referenced a photo of a motherboard from Corbis as well. I forgot who took the photos, but if you enter the search string "young woman squatting" and "motherboard" you'll find stuff there that hopefully, in your eyes, will resemble what I tried to do here.... Bony ribs are bony, I got stuff wrong. This is the second time I've attempted this painting. I tried to do this version from memory, AND I DID IT. SO I LEARNED STUFF. WHICH IS AWESOME. *** Changes, and edits are: Higher contrast, warmer colors; adjusted lips, arch of the foot, and colors (however imperceptibly) of her outfit parts...and some other stuff that I noticed just now. And yes, I do like her skin darker as opposed to pale token caucasian white, in case anyone actually did look back at the first version of SparkPlug. Sorry for spamming your inboxes, those who had already skipped over this. These are my final changes. You won't have to look at it anymore. |

I know I'm a bit biased when I say this since I love glowy things, but there seems to be a lack of contrast to me. I guess I wish there were more highlights?

Not a bias, nope. Her wings are kind of like...a self-contained glow (hard to explain), I didn't want to make it too garish. I wanted to avoid a plastic-look, especially on the skin, too.... but I HAVE heightened the contrast a bit, just now. Does it work?

I like the composition and the colors; the glow on the wings and the circuit boards are a nice touch. Careful about making the top of the foot too flat, as the bottom of the foot isn't the only part that arches (although, looking at it again, it may just be the shading).
I would try to make the bottom lip not be so thin compared to the top lip; having a fuller bottom lip makes the mouth look more natural and more attractive. I'd also consider removing some of that dark contour line on her lips as it makes it look more like something fake sitting on top of her skin. I totally understand the shadow and lighting you're using, but considering the yellow glowing pattern on her cheek illuminating that side of her face, I don't think that the stage-right part of her lips would be QUITE as shadowy, if that makes sense.
