if you're not being stressed by any deadline, don't feel afraid to continue working on the face details. you said you're aiming for something realistic.

Put the detail form in the picture into your work and also the pupils reach the bottom of the eye in the picture but only reach like half way on yours.

The current version looks incredible. The area around the mouth is looking really realistic.

Some people are going to kill me for this, but in your final version it would be a good idea to dither to soften the skin.

The end of the nose is a bit indistinct and messy. You should work on that.

I like it.
But you do realize that you have a 13 years old on the picture, but a 25 years old on the drawing?

Yes, a lot of people have mentioned that..

I think the best thing i can do, is just continue with what i'm doing now and then if i feel like it, come back and do a "younger" version..

Wish i did it on purpose xD

Right now it kind of looks like her face is made of melting plastic. I would tone down or remove the brightest highlight from most of the face.

Ok ;]

I'm going to have a go at making it "blend" more..

I'll probably try and dither it.

If that doesn't work, i'll look about changing the colours.

EDIT:

Changed some things that was pointed out on pixelation.

Well, at minimum she looks a lot younger now.

You're going to want to dither at the very end, because if you screw up, it'll be living hell to fix it.
