Red Nouveau

Hello everyone! Happy Thanksgiving, haha. XD
This here is actually an art project for my school, but I still took the opportunity to try some new things and learn from it.
It is, of course, a picture of Red, from the graphic novel (Oh, I'll just call it a comic) that I'm working on, Red.
It's in the art nouveau style, which is one I've always admired. It was alot of work attempting all the geometric lines in the lineart, but considering I was just using pencils and rulers, I did pretty good.
The main thing I did here though was try a new style of shading, and while it could obviously use a little work, I really like the outcome.
And finally, this is the first picture in which I've used a texture that wasn't presented to me in Photoshop. The texture I used for this is in `hibbary's 23 Paper Textures, so all credit goes to them!
So that's it! Comments are appreciated! I'm pretty happy with how this turned out!
