Mushroom girl

Same girl, but I couldn't decide which background I liked more. This is a sketch I made this weekend for DAC food challenge and I thought it would be fun to take her to fruition. I know I should try for something more fantastic and out of the box, but the thought of doing the food challenge as a pin up girl sounded like a fun idea when I was sketching her. Oh just in case you didn't know there is an actual mushroom that looks like the flower in her hair. I even tried to copy the color of the image I found of that mushroom. Sketched in pencil, colored in Photoshop CS3.

*edit. Added a top on her so I didn't have to worry about privacy settings for DAC.

NemaFromSpain on DA is having a coloring contest of his ID drawing, so I thought I'd try it in order to work on my photoshop/coloring abilities. I will update with a link to the contest later. Just thought I'd post the flat colors for now, and will post it in process hopefully a couple more times before it's finished. I was amazed at how long it takes to do flat colors.

Here's an update. There's still more work to do, but since it was floating around on my system I thought it would be a good idea to post what I've done so far.
