Done on Adobe Photoshop CS6 + mouse
Started off by establishing the highlights and shadows on her face against a neutral gray background - this helps to understand the tonal value of the reference image. While still being zoomed out, I started blocking out the basic shapes and crevices on her face. Once I had a good understanding of her facial topography, I zoomed in further and further and started working on individual details until I was happy with the end result. I constantly kept flipping the canvas and using the Liquify tool in order to rectify any mistakes in the proportions. And this process takes a long time, but it is well worth it I finished it by adjusting the levels and applying a blur filter.
