More work on this. I tried to keep the dithering on the face to a minimum, and reduce the dithering on the clothes and cap some. I did keep some dither on the latter, though, since it help to describe texture. Also made an attempt to add the necklace she's wearing in the ref photo.

Whoops, sorry, I should've edited my previous post instead of replying. :-*

Forgot to mention I also ended up desaturating the bright orange (lowest band on the background gradient) because I felt it was standing out a bit too much.

It's really great but, check at 1x zoom, right side of the cap, ridge area. Do you see where those two super-bright pixels are next to two BLACK pixels. Do you note the jagginess rending my face with severe malignancy?

Hello Helm, thanks for pointing that bit out. Been busy, so I haven't had a chance to really look at this til now. I think I wanted to have a good contrast to show the edge, but I hadn't realised how bad the contrast was. I fixed up that part of the cap, I think(?) Cheers, Helm, your help's been awesome so far. :)
