A very cliché beginning and I'm guessing you can guess where I'll try to go with it... 

 

Nope, I can't guess yet.
But it looks good so far.

Nice one Charlotte, loving the expression of the figure!

Undead?
Vampire or zombie or...
Well, let's see how it develops...
 

Not sure what's going on with this one...

 

I kinda like the sideways head but the vampire one hasn't gone the way I'd liked but I'm not redoing it just yet.
Proportions and anatomy seem all over the place, I may have to resize and/or move some things about. Or maybe just start again.

I think the vampire looks fine so far... Just curious to see if the dead guy is a victim or will be a vampire or zombie. She might be in for a surprise if he's the latter. I wonder if zombie blood is tasty or toxic for vampires?

Took some time to doodle on this before playing more sons of the forest, but Merlin won't quite let me focus. Maybe I'll get further this weekend  
I was planning to show her an undead vampire in the mirror (of course vampires have reflections! They do exist after all They just can't hide what they are from a mirror!) but now I'm thinking maybe I'll go with something Dorian Greyish instead... He's kind of undead, too, right?  

Anyway, still messy. 
 

I looked at the picture before reading the text of your post and thought "She must be Doreen Gray"
