Photoshopper needed

Yeah, I'm in need of some help from someone handy with photoshop. I'm making a new DnD character (Yes, I do play DnD) and I'd like a picture of him. I browsed through some of my books and found a nice match that I'd like to have converted to a Neverwinter Nights portait.

Now, the picture is just good a match, not perfect or anywhere near. I've no idea if what I'm asking is big or whatever as I'm not experienced with editing pictures at all.

However, this is my wishlist of what I'd like changed on the picture:

* The scales (skin) need to be darker, almost black
* If possible he should look more evil (meaner eyes etc)
* His eyes need to be a glowingish light green
EDIT: * Making him bald
If baldness is too hard or impossible I'd like his hair darker

The first one is the most important (and the hardest one too, I imagine?) but I will be happy if you skip this on account of being to difficult or time-consuming and focus on other points instead.

Here's the picture I want to change. I don't want the whole body, only from about shoulder up.

For further reference on his looks, here's a link to the type of dragon he resembles:

Shadow Dragon

Also, creating a portrait for NwN is slightly complicated, but only slightly. Here's a url to a guide:

Would you be willing to do this for me I'll be ever grateful but I'm afraid that's all I can offer. If you're interested, either write so in a comment or drop me a PM. My mail-inbox get spammed with... Well, spam, so there's a risk your mail will be lost in my cleanout-raids. Would you want to we can talk closer on MSN (I'm currently not using IRC).

Best regards

He looks mean now :D

Hellgoat, the colour of his scales shouldn't be too hard to do, pretty much selecting his scale and playing around with a colour balance or hue/saturation.

How much of the image do you want?
And what do you mean by making his eyes meaner?

e.g.

Having it like this

You're totally awesome decem-o.
Be a sweetie and read my reply further down where I'm begging for more free favours.
Parent
can you explain me how you did that ?
Parent
This is super, nice shade on the scales. I was thinking of having about from the left shoulder and up but I haven't really decided yet. Full body is pretty nice too.

Would be nice if you could make a background like I specified further down in my reply too mate :O)
Parent
emm.. Warhammer FRPG is beter :)

I already put it in the character dimensions, so if you like it i could do the next step of that tutorial and make it into a TGA...
Plenty love. Read my reply for more begging ;>
Parent
Maaan, thanks a lot guys :D I totally fucking love you! Finland decem, Finland Panda and Netherlands xRio plenty love goes out to all of you!

But... There's one more thing :(

Could someone make a little cooler background for the picture?
Preferably something abstract and dark. He's a Shadow dragonkith so perhaps if he was surrounded by some shadowy substans sliightly resembling a dragon? That'd be fucking awesome.
Or just a mist. Whatever is easy and quick to do.
I managed to finish the picture ...
