I've been laying down layers of graphite, trying to build the tonal values up slowly. It's almost like watching the image slowly fade into view. I like the way her face is coming along, but I'm not sure about the hair. I just jumped right in on rendering the hair, trying to pay attention to the darks and highlights and the form of the hair. There's a long way to go, yet, but I think it's coming along well. Now I need to think of a title... "The Little Princess" maybe...
