Can't imagine why you are not happy with this - it is lovely! I really like the limited palette and the textures on her gloves and hair. Beautiful!

She looks pretty unhappy about being out in the blue cold. Nice work. I like the understated expression.

yes carla, it's quite charming. my only quibble, if I can use such an expression, is the regularity of the snowflakes. I mean the spacing and placement, but now that I think about it, also don't they say that there are no two snowflakes the same.
sin embargo, creo que el resto y el efecto total esta muy bien.
¿prefieres comentario en inglés o mi particular español?
the overall effect is just about spot on, it is just the my eyes are drawn to the line of snowflakes, thus taking them off that girls eyes, where we both want them to stay.
love the scarf
love scott
