Breakdown

• Line Work

  6/10
  The currency lines in the upper section show reasonable structure, but the portrait beneath has very soft, diffused edges that lack crispness.
• Shading & Fill

  6/10
  The graywash shading appears heavily healed and faded; the portrait especially has lost definition with midtones blending into highlights without distinct transitions.
• Design & Creativity

  7/10
  The cash-to-portrait theme is a recognizable and cohesive narrative choice that flows down the forearm with intentional stacking.
• Placement

  7/10
  The forearm placement works well for a vertical composition, with the larger portrait anchoring the lower arm naturally.
• Execution

  7/10
  The overall application appears complete and healed, though the portrait details have softened considerably, possibly from aging or initial ink saturation.

How to push it higher

• 1 Consider a touch-up session focused on adding darker blacks to the portrait's shadows, especially around the hood and facial features, to restore depth and dimension.
• 2 Tighten the highlights on the bill brim with cleaner negative space or whiter ink to create more separation from the background tones.
• 3 Add sharper edge work where the portrait meets the surrounding elements to prevent the figure from appearing to dissolve into the arm.
