Decided to try something a little different, I'm really pleased with how it came out.
Got to grips with the gradient map tool in Illustrator too and its very useful if a bit counter intuitive. Photoshop was used for some colour adjustment and the bubbles.
Very nice detail around the hair and the eyes! I feel that the gradient on the face doesn't match the skill in the hair and eyes, perhaps a revamp or some PS work could help bring the piece together more. The colors are excellent, but perhaps a little too uncontrasty, but that could just be my tastes. All that said, it's an excellent piece anyway! Well done.
My aim with the gradient was to keep it as subtle as possible, I didnt want it to overpower the cell shading on the face which would then make it look pretty awful.
Just noticed a couple of dodgy bits I'm going to have to fix actually
