Ooh, and never look at the thing until you've done quite an recognisable area,
for instance i didn't look at this until I had finished the eyes and nose.
And don't try and get the shading just right. Start with the blackest areas first, cuz, y'know, black is black, but build up the layers of shading, using little shapes i mentioned, and build it up until it appears too dark.
Than tickle it with an eraser and smudge it gently to lighten it up a bit.
