Another Portait Critique Needed

[Watercolour]

Heya guys,
I'd be very grateful for some critiques on this one, the face is pretty much done (I think), so any input would be helpful The rest I haven't worked on much yet, so it's not finished. Thank you in advance!

Here's some development. Any critique on the "outfit" (and all the rest) would be helpful
The hair still needs work

Try incorporating a more obvious contrast of values and decide which direction the main light source is coming from, I think your shadows (especially on the princess' neck/under jaw) is too subtle and some shine on the hair can really help define segments and curls. I would also recommend more rendering work on her teeth, the lack of individual ridges and tooth shapes such as canines makes it look like she's wearing a mouthguard. Hope that helps, it's looking good so far!

Thank you, it does help I'm very inexperienced with lighting, so it's always helpful to have someone point out where work is needed the most. I'm not sure I was able to "fix" it, I refined some areas, but I have some more to go - the teeth included, I'm having a hard time making them look not scary However, here's some progress.

Hmm you might want to adjust that crown on the forehead up or down a few values. It's hard to notice it's there. The hair would probably be brighter considering the lighting that's going on around. Considering how the neck values are, it almost seems like you might want to break up the values around the face a little bit more... Though I guess it's not really a big deal =\

Though if you're interested in giving a little bit more depth in the colors, you can probably filter in a slight amount of greens, especially in the background. Reason being is that you're using two primary hues of the RGB colorspace... Which is "blue" for the hair, "red" for the clothes. So it stands to reason you could use greens to help the subjects red and blues bleed out better.

I'll do an overpainting

Anyway, your welcome hope it helps.

Thank you for your feedback and taking the time, @illustrative_inquisi
I tried improving the overall contrast, the result's below. I had left that one alone for some time, and came back to it a few days ago Your input is most welcome!

Hi. Sorry for my English.
Basic edits:
1) The left eye. Has corrected prospect.
2) Glare in the eyes. Need less blurry.
3) Left eyebrow. Slightly closer to the center.
4) The right corner of the mouth. Has corrected prospect.
5) Also made the light more diffused. It's better not to climb into hard shadows if you do not feel the shape of your face.
6) Added a light shadow under the diadem for better readability.
