Description
My first attempt at entering a challenge or contest!This one is for mizzd's [link] 48 hour challenge. The stock used as reference is her own (all of her stock is fantastic, please check out her page!)
I was originally just going to do grey scale with a hint of colour but I really got into it and came up with this. I'm quite happy with the way it turned out. If there are any constructive comments on things I could have done to improve it further, I would greatly appreciate it if you could post them. That way I can keep them in mind for future projects!
Thanks!

Thank you very much! I used to sketch on paper with pen like this all the time and wondered if I could do it with Photoshop. I'm really happy with the results!

brilliant work! your technique is wonderful & i love the simplicity in colours used, its very striking...the only suggestion i would have to improve it, perhaps draw in more of her shoulders, without them the head 'floats in space' a bit
Good luck in the contest

Fantastic! Thanks for the crit, I really appreciate it! I enjoyed this technique so much I'd like to use it more in my portraits so I will definitely keep that in mind.

At first glance I thought you'd drawn this on actual paper but upon closer look I noticed it wasn't.
I love the technique and it looks wicked.
The eyes have got to be my favorite bit.
