Using the same type technique from the hair I do the lockes on her feet.

These areas are a little more difficult because I have more angles and areas of depth to think about when selecting areas of shadow and light.

For the scarf I change technique a little. I use a layer above the scarf set on multiply, but with a low opacity, and using a light reddish-brown, shade the folds.

I go back to her face and add a few more shades and accents. 45

And then the most difficult part, the fire ring.

I start with a large airbrush, low opacity, stylus vary opacity and begin to smooth over the areas I began earlier. Then I switch the stylus to vary size as well, and continue to work, building up lighter areas from darker red-oranges.

Eventually I hit a point where I want the brightest yellows, and start to lay them in with smaller brushes.

Then I put the airbrush on screen, take off vary size, and work in smaller areas of bright yellow or yellow-gold-oranges.

Finally, I splash flecks of color, like cinders all over the brightest areas, and splash a few in the darker areas as well. I vary using the airbrush on screen and normal to get different vaules of bright.
