Progress on my self portrait

I have to give credit to Mr. Hansen-he is the one that gave me the idea of having the reflection in my sunglasses be of a city. To create that, it has taken me all week. It was really hard to do all of the little buildings and figure out how to do the background behind it. I decided I wanted a sunset behind the buildings, so I did that with the gradient tool. The buildings are darker blues and purples, and I haven't finished putting the yellow windows in yet, but I can do that later on. I really need to work on getting the face shading done, and I still need a nose. But I think that this is a really fun, relaxing project. It definitely tests my patience out.
