 it's a little too soft on the eyes and i'm not a fan of the forehead and nose shadows. i hve an intense looking outake with sharper eyes but i look angry in it. i think most people here would rather see a pretty picture so i want to see how this does.

Idea, model, pose, expression, crop :)
Lighting :(
I hope you get some good advice from people who know their ropes - I'm still in the trial-and-error phase myself, as far as lighting goes, just about able to spot a problem when I see it, but not confident in how to deal with it.
I find your portrait above average as is, but nowhere near its ultimate potential.

FOcus seems a bit soft. Nice full frame shot though.

Out of focus, facial expressions looks forced.

very curious expression. I have a couple observations that only you can judge. 1. Does the shot suffer from short focal length distortion?
2. I think the eyes are not quite in focus.
You might have made us of a reflector to soften the shadow from her nose.

Take what I say with a grain of salt. You did a great job.

Great pose and smile. If it was a bit sharper I think it would have scored a point or two higher.

This is very odd. The skin looks plastic and the expression is very doll like....is this actually a doll?
