REMEMBER TO SAVE OFTEN
Step 1:
We will be be making the girl shown above. The outlines below have been resized a lot so you can see them clearly.
The main outline in 2 parts, the face will be done separately. We will be starting with the main outline.
To make this easier I have numbered all pixels over 1.
Open a new image 200 x 200 transparent.
Select the brush tool with the following settings.
Size: 1 - Hardness, Opacity and Density: 100
Zoom in to about 800% - 1000%
Set your foreground to colour 1 on the Hair colour chart of your choice - I used Brunette #846339 - and start by drawing one of the pig tails onto your canvas.
You can use your mover tool to move it later if you need to.
Once the hair is done use the colours on the main colour chart to continue the outline.
When you have drawn the 1st part of the outline as shown above continue with the outline shown below.
Her hair bands and pyjamas outlines are colour 3 on the main colour chart (#EE98B2) or a colour of your choice. The skin outline is colour 1 (#CA8368) on the main colour chart and the teddy outline is colour 5 (#A56318) on the main colour chart.
NOTE: The parts shown in blue are the parts you drew in on the first outline.

Step 2: Face
When all the outline is complete add a new raster layer so we can add the face.
Use the guide below.
For her eyebrows and nose use colour 1 (#CA8368) on your colour chart.
For the eyelashes use colour 5 (#000000) on your colour chart.
For the eye colour use two colours of your choice. I used colour 7 (#6190E3) and colour 8 (#3A5693) on your colour chart.
Add one white (#FFFFFF) pixel in each corner of the eyes.
For the bottom lip use colour 2 (#D36C7F) on your colour chart.
For the top lip use colour 3 (#E4909E) on your colour chart.
Change to colour 4 (#EAA9B4) on your colour chart and add one pixel underneath the bottom lip in the center.
Add a new raster layer.
Select your paint brush and colour 3 (#E4909E) on your colour chart.
Change the paintbrush size to 2 - shape round.
Click once on the face so you end up with the image shown below.
Go to Adjust - Blur - Gaussian Blur - 1.
Move this layer below the face layer. Duplicate and mirror.
Hide all layers except for the face and cheeks and merge those visible then hide the face layer while we work on the fills.
