Ah, a very clean work of art! I can't believe you kept it so smooth and clean! It is also very well textured on the tongue and clothes, the tones are very well ranged. All in all a very very good drawing :3

great job! looks awesome!
all the details and well done textures
i also like that the hair leaves the frame
and wow, 80 hours on this? that is ... a lot.
my longest drawing was 12 hours, and that was a lot for me.
but there is one thing that keeps me thinking:
the scarf (or what you would call it) looks like colored in negative
because it is light to both sides (top and bottom)

I actually lost count of the hours. It was over two month span and I just assume 2 hour each day. When I get better then it will be more efficient

I love everything about it.
The tongue is amazing and it's really good how the hair goes over the border of the drawing.
