Any help you can provide for a newbie digital artist hopeful would be greatly appreciated.

You're doing this with a mouse aren't you? looks like it since you placed so many vectors instead of freehand lines.
I think easthetically it's great, just to early in to make a difference I guess.

Yeah. I started it with a mouse to lay in the basic blocks.

This is as far as I am going tonight.
Doing this on the computer is just hard to get used to, then again, I imagine everyone feels that way in the beginning.
I'm basically looking for tips on the shading techniques. I've been using a crosshatch and then blending it. Not sure if that's the way I should be going at it or not.

A little too big, so had to move it to flickr.
It's coming along very nicely! :beer:

Thanks. Some of the talent here is just absolutely remarkable and to even have them look at my work is appreciated.

I added a little more shading and started blocking in the neck. Tried to bring a little more life to the eye.

Latest update. Running out of ideas on it now. May move to coloring it.

I think I learned quite a bit about the digital painting process during its development.
