I love spending time looking around the Spectrum Noir tutorials on the website, so much inspiration and way's to improve technique...because lets face it, somedays all the inspiration goes on its holidays and usually just when you need it! lol
So, as I was looking around I found a tutorial that got me thinking about colouring clothing and making sure I have highlights...here's my finished image after I had read through the fabulous hints and tips...(and keep reading, as my card has a little hidden extra!)
Here's what I used to make it:
