everything... just trace it on photoshop with a pen tool or brush or whatever it is you use.

proportions are way off. shading and detail need work too.

Here's some tuts for you to check out if you're thinking about getting into digital painting:

Also, make sure you're using a good brush. I usually use the charcoal brush (1% spacing, Angle Jitter: Direction, adjust size as needed) when I do my digital paintings. Make sure you sample a wide variety of skin tones for maximum contrast.
