For those of you that remember this from two days ago, well, I gave digital painting another more serious whirl, and this time I came up with something better 
Pic
Original image size: 1600x1200 @ 180 dpi
Project time: approx 4 hours
Layers: 8 visible, 10 total
I learned a lot of things doing this picture. First, I spent a lot less time than I should've on the hair, and that's why it looks pretty flat and, well, not real. Painting hair sucks. Also, my comp sucks too and I can't work with images larger than stated above because at that size, large "smudge" brushes @ size 60ish and above tend to lag. I do wish I could blur the background a little more, but it's pretty much as smudged and blurred as my sanity will let it get. Finally, the ear kinda sucks cuz again I didn't spend that much time on it. But otherwise the rest of the pic turned out the way I had envisioned and I'm happy with it. What do you guys think?
