My third speedpainting. But this one wasn't so speedy, because Photoshop that it thought it'd maybe wait for me to reach my midlife crisis before it would do anything (in other words, it was be SO SLOW) ~ So, as always, it didn't turn out like I wanted, but with all the trouble it was giving me, I just wanted to finish it. One good thing that came out of this: I've improved just a little bit more.
PS was slow partially because your image resolution is really high. Try starting smaller around 1000px x 618px. Or even smaller than that if you want to thumbnail and work out the composition and lighting before you commit to something so large.
