Here are the Prismacolor pencil colors I'm using for Gwen's face. In the upper right you can see I've made swatches of those colors on a scrap of the same paper I'm working on, to see how those colors look on that grey.

Gwen's head is only 2 inches high in the portrait, so to do her features I have to sharpen my pencil points as sharp as I can get them.

It’s tricky doing accurate facial features when some of the details - like the frame of her glasses - are thinner than a sharp pencil point!
