I'm totally nuts about this last one too - the profile. GREAT integration of strokes and color bits woven in like hair extensions or something. She looks beautiful and dazzling and all that you were probably aiming for. The stuff you do seems to heighten the impression given by the sight of a naturally alluring girl. It's makes them really stand out. Great color selection and very clever use of the AR tools, especially noteworthy is the palette knife (I think). How it sharply cuts in with color, which gives me a double impression where on one hand it's additive like make up or something, and on the other hand it's like we're scratching the surface thus revealing inner layers of colors. And to me that implies psychological dimension. And I strongly think your selection of the kinds of marks and their placement is really satisfying.
Also loving the continuance of your delightful Gothic vampire girl, hahaha. Very fun.
