its a little flat, isnt it? i think you should mark the nose, using shadows or something... and why are her eyebrows a different colour than her hair? using blue eyes instead of her usual greenish ones isnt bad, just a personal touch... ^^

i think it's better already. perhaps you could add some highligths to both face and hair, to make it come a live a little more...? :)
actually, your idea of highlighting the hair isnt bad, but if i were you i would make it a little... broader. the highlighted area, that is.

edit: one last comment on this one: if you look at the original, it looks like she makes a surprised face, right? thus, i would say what you made into her lower lip, is actually her teeth, or possibly tongue... think you can remake that somehow? ^^

did you by chance forget to lock the pixels in each layer? that would explain why the colours are smudged into each other... i agree though, that the sakura picture was better. its great that you are interested and keep trying though. i have only done three myself. you can find one of my works in the For Fun category. it's the 309 cover with sasuke and the snake, and you'll find my username under it, of course... ^^
