Hiya! I chose to do Maria (Julie Andrews) from the Sound of Music š
I’m also realizing now that all of my files are cropped strangely because Illustrator includes everything outside of the image when exporting to a jpeg, but that’s okay by me for showing it as a work in progress–hope you don’t mind! It’s not completely finished either, so let me know if there are any weird spots to work out.
I love the color scheme – the colors you chose go very well together and I feel that they fit both the original photo and the character. The text placement and font used are both well-chosen, and the details on the eyes look amazing. I’d suggest adding some blue shadows to the right side of her face so that it has more definition and stands out more from her hair. Keep up the good work!

Awesome, awesome work so far! I really love the way in which you’ve handled the hair details and the hat. The color scheme is very nice too. It’d be cool if you added a bit more of the skin tone color on the left side of her face, just under the eye, as I feel that this would balance out her face a bit more. I can’t wait to see it once it’s done!

Love the contrast between the blue and salmon color! The offset and disjointed background was also a really cool aspect to add into the design. My only suggestion would be to darken the blue background, it’s a little close to the blue of the hat. Overall killer design!

I would hang this on my wall, its very pleasant to look at, and the two very different colors work extremely well together. One suggestion I would have is that the dark blue seems a little unbalanced, I would maybe suggest adding some more of that color throughout in areas such as around the nose, underneath the chin, as well as underneath the hat. This would emphasize the face a little bit more as well as create a more balanced piece!
