EDIT : I uploaded a higher resolution.

I tried to have my shadowing as soft as the words he's telling her.
I let you imagine about that.

Full page reference on a 2010 newspaper. I had to improve in order to draw this one the way I wanted it. I tried to be less impatient than I use to be to finish it.
Hope you'll like it. Critics and comments are very welcome :)

Ah lovely drawing!! You made the shading super smooth indeed!
I think maybe his eye could be a bit sharper (since I noticed you saying you weren't fully satisfied below)? As her earring is, and her hair is quite sharp as well. I think if the shading of his eye were a little léss smooth (mainly just the folds and lashes perhaps), it would make for a nice extra focal point that would help drag our gaze around the picture. Am I making any sense?
Beautiful work regradless! Fav for sure!
