step 2 of 9
type whatever text you prefer, make sure it is black, rasterize it, and turn it into a brush. (edit
step 3 of 9

step 4 of 9
for this step you might want to reference something, I already knew what I had in mind but now were going to use the numbers to form our primary figure.
step 5 of 9
I used the pen tool to shape half the face then I duplicated the layer, flipped it, and merged them. After a few minor adjustments I was left with this.
step 6 of 9
now to add values, pick whatever color you want. try to remember where the curves are on a face, I had trouble with this part so I added a spherize filter at 50% (use the ellipse tool and shift to select the face as a circle) before I started painting to help me out.
step 7 of 9
next I used downloaded brushes (link is below the entry) to surround the face in smoke
step 8 of 9
unfortunately the brushes were not enough. So I rendered clouds expanded them to twice their original size and used a soft brush to erase around the face.
step 9 of 9
A side ways "8" forms the infinity symbol, two number signs on the cheeks(blend mode was linear burn), and some final adjustments should leave you with the finished product
