I can\'t comment on the lines but I agree with DJ, this portrait is stunning. I can\'t imagine any lens doing a better job... Of course, one of the advantages of shooting young folks as you do means generally you\'ll get creamy skin as we see with this girl. But the eyes leap off the screen, no doubt a tribute, at least in part, to how you were lighting the scene.
I did check a wide open shot taken with this lens out of curiosity and took screen shots at 100% at a couple of locations. Here\'s the image, which you\'ve seen before posted on this thread.
Here are the crops... I selected them because there is an artifact present in each, at least to my eye. I certainly hadn\'t noticed this until you brought this subject to our attention. At least with the flower, I don\'t think what I highlight is a problem.
