Skin tones is one of the main things I have a problem with. I "understand" saturating colors, esp. skin tones trying not to make them flat, (esp. with that tutorial you directed me to, it helped a lot) But, one of the characteristics of the girl was that she is homeless, so I tried to use some browns (which had a lot of gray in them) which whacked up the skin tone, and obviously gave her the 5 a clock shadow as well.

Thanks for pointing out the arms and head, too, I was really rushing through this one, and forgot to flip the canvas, (really helps to point out mistakes when you've looked at your work for a while) So I totally went over that.

Thanks again!
