Do you just color with a brush and then use a layer effect like overlay or something?

Nice color choices. I think blue is too cliche for a blond though. I would have guessed she was a blonde though based on the way she looks lol. (I didn't mean that to be mean, it just actually would have been a guess for me because that's kind of what blonde women look like... Don't ask me why, I just would have thought that.)

I think you could have toned down the blue on the eyes a bit though, otherwise good job. Maybe even tried green eyes instead? or Hazel? Smile

Tip: For the eyes, you shouldn't have colored in the pupil... Leave that a bit darker.

Has a really nice glow to it because of all the layering. Did you try Infinity's suggestion of changing her eye colour? I'd like to see how light red hair with green eyes would appear.

Here's what I came up with, The eyes as i've been talking about, they generally look better if you keep the pupil darker. If you zoom in you'll notice i've put a mask over top of the part I colored to keep it darker than the iris. The eyes are actually a shade in between blue and green, so hazel I suppose. I turned down the opacity to make it more realistic as well after re-coloring it. Yours seem a bit too bright.

I also changed the color of her earring and her bracelent to silver to create more contrast in the image, and to match the little silver ring on her hip. The gold earring with the blonde hair looked a little dull to me, and same with the braclet, so this is the way I would have done it.

EDIT: As I was doing this I noticed how smudged it was under her arm supporting her on the bed. That makes the image ... well you get the idea.
