Face

This was the first thing that I created from scratch in Photoshop, rather than my usual method of drawing a picture, scanning it and then finishing it off digitally. It was made possible by the purchase of a graphics tablet; previously, when I tried to draw freehand with a mouse, I'd be sent into a homicidal fury of frustration in no time flat. The mouse is a fine input device as long as you don't want any sort of fine control over how the cursor skips and darts about the screen, but for graphics work — well, it just sucks.
