Wow thanks for the tutorial link! And the feedback, captain. i'll update again tomarrow after i've put some more noticable work into it. I'll try out the 1pxl hair too.

Pretty girlfriend !

It's coming along nicely with the skin shading creating a real sense of form. I think what might look slightly wrong with the mouth is that it's too small and not quite pink enough. The whites of her eyes are a bit light too- I know this is meant to indicate health and vitality but the effect is slightly overdone.

It's just a suggestion but to get a slightly more lively complexion to her skin you could always subtley add some primary colours to the mix. Maybe experiment with some low opacity yellows and reds about the picture ?

Good luck with this - it shows a lot of promise.
