Edit : Okay, I removed a couple versions that I personally didn't end up liking at all, here's 2 versions, C&C!
Version one is more the original, and in V2 I tried to smooth up some oversharpenning and pixellation, and I used a 1pixel smudge to re-create hair and try and fix the floating head problem. xD

I prefer V2. Once again, good job on your text. I'd say, make the "ISMYGOD" smoother. Might be hard to do since it's small text. Maybe, 1 px pencil on super low opacity? Other than that, good job. I like the painting feel to it.
I think you should make the width shorter tho. Keep the face near the edge of the sig, but still, make it shorter.

Thanks for the C&C. The floating head problem is VERY hard to rid because the stock itself has no neck, her black hair is covering it, that's why I put her hand beneath her chin, it used to be out infront but I felt it made her head feel more... there. :P
Also, I fixxed alot of pixellation and sharpenning problems, V2 is up.

Yeah it looks a lot smoother now. I still prefer the head to be near the edge of the sig tho. Oh well, a matter of preference. Good job btw.

I didn't notice you suggested the smaller canvas. :D I threw in a shorter one, just for you. xD I've always been partial to large dark space, I think it provides great depth, but I think I'm weird when it comes to that, so the shorter one might be the better choice.

Oooooohhhh! I love the shorter one. Yes, thanks for that. Indeed I do think the shorter one is better. I do agree that sometimes, some extra negative space might work. Not this one though. I really like the shorter one.

Hmm! Okay, I'll probably make this one the SotW entree then. I'll wait for a couple more replies and see what others think, thanks for the C&C though! :D

Version 3 is pretty awesome, I'm glad you cropped it, a bit too long but you corrected that.
I think it's a bit oversharpened in some areas but other than that, you fix it up pretty nicely.
On a side note, I like the way you actually show development and you post all the versions and actually use the CnC that we give you. Keep that up, it's great to see improvement!
