I would encourage you all to post your works-in-progress here so that I can give feedback along the way. Can't wait to see what you've all done.

Thanks for posting this. I think you're off to a really good start. The background is looking good and I see you've worked out your values. The texture on the right side seems a bit intense... unless you're going for some sort of energy blast I would tone that one down. Maybe lose the directional lines...
As far as the skin tones, make sure your "flow" is set low, and dont go too heavy with the pressure. You just want to "tint" what is already there really. If the lines are blurring you might try using a smaller harder brush... you will have to go in and use a pretty fine brush when you paint all the detail.
I would lightly paint in some flesh-tones on the left side, then some deep reds on the right...
This is looking good. I meant for you to put reds into the right (burned) side of his face, not the background. That would be too much red. I would go with a cool grey maybe. The diagonal line texture is still a bit intense. Its competing against all the texture you've created in his face and is getting a little busy on the right side. You're going to need to balance the left side now. Maybe darkening it down down behind him a bit...
I'll attach a pic of my "hair" brush for you too.
This is coming along nicely. I would say keep going and refining the detail.
I would recommend researching actual photos of real water. Google image search "splash" "water" "surfing" etc so you see how real water reacts to light, and forms etc... otherwise you're just guessing. Itsa little too, "air-brush-y" at the moment.
