Photoshop Project: Fire Wire

I was inspired by this tutorial:

To alter

into

I was lucky because I have a Wacom tablet, even though it's a simple Bamboo Fun. However, I don't like the way the eyes turned out and the fact the image is too red. I tried erasing parts of the red on my skin and eyes and lips, but I ended up looking clownlike. My hair also looks too brown. I think I'll try this technique on another photo.
