2012 edit:
I have updated the vector to take into peoples comments about the hair not being right. So I hope the new and improved version is up to scratch.

I am in boring Northampton. Trying to make a living from doing Design & Print with not much luck.
Good tutorials on this website, plus I have some vectors you can download and take apart to see how they are done. Plus brushes and one car tutorial. So you can learn more. Most of what I know is from this site!

Well I work for myself at the moment and I am still not doing any vector work. Just not in the mood for it, as work is slow and I am thinking of going back to full time work again.

Thanks. Its all me. No special tools. If there was one, I could draw more. As I don't have the time these days.

Man, let me ask you:
Are you kidding me? How in the universe do you get this thing in only 5-6 hours???? xD, it takes me alot of time, days if not a week to get "something-a-bit-similar". Sincerelly: you're a master.
I still dont get how you shade it so "easy", I use to open the file in Photoshop, apply posterization, export the image to AI and vectorize it, it's a very long process. Is there any tutorial or sample file you I can see?
Thanks.

Nice work. My only concern is with a line under her right eye which makes her look older than she is. Other than that good work.
