Where to start. I have always been afraid of colours, shadows, quazi-realistic style and on top of that, I've been really pissed with my style lately... so what the hell am I doing here?!
I decided to bite the bullet and, after seeing Julie Dillon's awesome tutorial, decided to try it out. And it worked! I know there are many, many errors right now, but I'm glad I managed to overcome some of my fears.
I referenced myself, in the mirror, although I can assure you the girl in the picture and I have nothing in common, except for red hair+green eyes combo.
Many thanks to Vinegar who helped me a ton with this one and gave me some invaluable tips.

Thanks :)
