Thanks everyone for the comments. I'm hoping to do a follow up with an "after" shot for another ad.
Just a note for all those colorists out there... I tried tried subtractive method for the colors to give it a more smoother look on the skin. The process went extremely quickly and I think the results look pretty good.
1] I flat filled the image with the natural skin color and then I duplicated the same layer and adjusted that color to match the deepest shadow (darkened and a little desaturated). I laid it on top as a shadow layer (so that she looked dark).
2] I then used the soft eraser in Sketchpad Pro 2010 and erased parts of the shadow layer bit by bit. It was fun watching the drawing pop out as I did this and it feels like a more natural way of coloring for an artist who does thing by look and feel and not by technique.
3] I then used the airbrush tool and sprayed a very very light coat of white at the high points and light pink here and there.
4] Using a thick pencil, I traced around the leading highlight edges with a light saturated skin tone.

Thank you for the description of the process, specially how it fits with your look-and-feel personal style -- a very nice result in the end.
And goodness gracious, what a marketing campaign...

Lorna looks terrific stretching up on tippy-toes for the ad, or perhaps she needs to get her firm little bottom higher so she can straddle that monster toy. She's looking very fine, plus the details of her face are fantastic.
The rabbit controller is very cute too.

Thanks FairySlayer and welcome to Jabforums! I seem to remember your kind comments at the other sites. This one is not Little Lorna however, they all seem to look the same... just different hair. I'll have to work on giving my girls some different characteristics in their facial features... or not.

Nice one Sinope. I like the new coloring technique. It has a very smooth look to it. But, what I really like is the hair. I love the look you achieved on blond hair. It looks really great.
As far as your gals looking the same, you may want to try to change up the nose a little bit. Different noses can drastically change the look of the character. Just a suggestion.

If you want to make a change to their facial features you could just add a nice load of puppy spunk to the chin, puts a whole new spin on a pic. Oh look, she even got some in her hair.
