Praise: I felt that the hair was really well done. In order to do that , lots of patience and determination is required. In order to make such a stylish hair, each strand has to be carefully made with the correct shape. The hair has to be researched thoroughly through the hair and make sure that I plan before diving into the creation of it as if I did anything wrong, there was no going back. I knew that this was a ride or die situation. It was a huge risk to take. In the end I managed to complete the hair and was really proud of it. I was really proud that I didn't choose the easy way out at that point .

Polish: I felt that my art piece was a real masterpiece but theres always room of improvement. I find that I can improve on the facial details. For example, my eyes can be improved on by adding more reflection in the eyes to make it more realistic. Other areas I could improve on was by adding colours on my face as due to the result of there being too little colours on my facial features, I had to shade my spectacles black with a marker. Theres always something for me to improve on. Im really satisfied with my art work this time still though. I look forward to the next opportunity and will definitely try more different things next time.
