This is a tutorial on how I turned delightful Christina Ricci into an anime-style character for my entry Kawaii!.
Now, her face looks too wide, we need to address that.
Make a stamp layer (Shift+Ctrl+Alt+E).
Duplicate the left side of her face and chin and move it to the right and slightly up. Blend.
STEP 1
The first thing to do is to find a high-res image. The larger, the better. I like mine to be over 2272x1704.
STEP 2
Duplicate your source, and shrink it, that'll be the base for the image. Do not discard the original as we'll be cutting out bits and pieces out of it in the next steps.

STEP 3
Now cut the eyes from the original and place them on the smaller image, adjust the positioning. I usually drop the opacity of the eyes layer and join the inner eye corners together. Blend the eyes well. I use a speckled brush with opacity set to pressure, then apply a lower value Gaussian Blur. It can take a lot of time, so you'd better stock up on patience. ;)
Looks like I lost a part of her eyebrow due to the size difference. ;) So I'll just copy that part from the original, scale it down and blend it, change the layer blending mode to Darken.

Next, duplicate the nose area and shrink it. Place this layer under the eyes layer and adjust the positioning - I usually use the philtrum for guides. Because of the new size, the nose has to be rotated clockwise just a little (for this particular image), which caused the nostrils to look a bit uneven. I used Liquify to correct that.

STEP 5
Time to adjust the chin.
First, duplicate the lower part of the face with the neck and move it up.
Second, duplicate the base image (from Step 2) and use Liquify on the cheekbones to fit the layer with the chin.
Third, duplicate the mouth area, scale it down and blend all the layers together.
