Cheerio I love love love the candy theme and the hair. It looks great!
Beech, that one looks SO REALISTIC! It looks really good. Much better! Are you using an action for the effect on the final image? I love the effect so much
Curly hair is like the bane of my existence. I just can't get the curls to look right when I draw them. You did a good job Dana!
Tay, everyone starts somewhere right? Judging by your sig, you make awesome pictures! Look at all the 'Winner' banners you have. No reason to be jealous, you're clearly awesome!
I always forget about actions. I don't know what it is! I really should start because I always get super lazy at the end of my edits and I feel it probably would make then look so much better.

Thank you, plum!
As far as hair drawing, I have no idea where to start. I mean, the shape obviously, but that's where I struggle. Is there anything to help with that?
Jillie, your photos are SO GOOD already. If you started using actions, you'd be unstoppable. :P
Tay: Honestly I'd say just google hair styles similar to what you want to draw and then copy it. Heh, sorry if that isn't much help. It's what I do though.
The shape is in my opinion one of the most important things. It's what's really going to make or break your hair. If you can't tell it's gonna be natural flowing hair before you start applying texture it's probably not going to turn out as best as it could.
I am though super lazy so a lot of the time I don't do this when I should. But you should draw it out and have the ends already pulled out, and have it cut out around the parts of the sim it won't be covering.
Leesa actually has the best shaping that I've seen. She actually has her hair done in sections so she has a mapped out area of where to place her textures.
I can't hair draw >.< I can do very simple straight styles or like a ponytail but I have trouble with shaping too so anything flowing or curly....haha Usually I'm too lazy to try unless I need to...maybe I'll give it another whirl though, because I think I'll need to try for my Simspiration picture!
OOoh those are pretty! I have such a hard time finding actions I actually like. These vintage ones are about the only ones I like and I can't for the life of me remember who made them!!

I love them. they are fun and add a finishing touch, but I don't always use them

I'm with you. I can't do curly hair very well AT ALL!!
I might try hair drawing again, now with these colour palettes I think my shading and highlighting will be a lot better but ahh so much to do so little time, might see if I can do this tonight
I hate it when people see me at the supermarket and they're like:

I love this person's actions on photoshop. I especially love the Sunlight and Sundown ones.

@plumrobert...I LIVE for actions! I used to have a lot but whittled them down to a few
I have 50+ actions. Love 'em! I don't think I could give any up. Totally a hoarder.
Ava: I believe in you! Anyone can be great at anything as long as they try. You totally got this!
OOoh those are pretty! I have such a hard time finding actions I actually like. These vintage ones are about the only ones I like and I can't for the life of me remember who made them!!
