Femme fatale II - step II... Glazing my way to a viable color scheme!

I did a second quick pass this morning to determine the potential direction I could take with this piece...


My next move was to commit to preliminary darks and highlights to make her feel more real...

The next pass should be sufficient to bring about the necessary color saturation I'm after. I like the pastel look of the initial phase on raw canvas... so leveraging the canvas (texture and gray color) is a challenge that I'm starting to meet. The next one will be to leave brush marks on such a coarse surface... so I'll be looking for really coarse brushes.
