# why the change in style of face?
It's a lovely composition and everything, but I wonder if it would be better with your more cartoony style face. It's edging a bit too close to the uncanny valley for me this one.
Also not sure on the cable near her head, doesn't look right, wants to disappear more toward her shoulder, not cheek

and I agree with Cathy Ray, let the idiots not get it, why panda to them?

# Its a tribute to Gil Elvgren
and his gals are always a bit realistic, but slightly caricaturish. I didnt want to go too nuts with the stylisation, as im a bit sick of doing that sort of stuff at the moment, and wanted to try and emulate a 1950s pinup.
I agree though - ive seen folks try and do the same thing, and the face always looks creepy. I think its the strained, very 'cheek-heavy' expression that theyre always in!

I'd like to think that she's pretty far away from realistic enough to be considered 'uncanny valley'
