Step 1:

This is the outline we will be making. Mine has been resized a lot so you can see it clearly.
To make this easier I have numbered all pixels over 1.
NOTE: We will be adding the face at the end.

Open a new image 100 x 100 transparent.
Select the brush tool with the following settings.
Size = 1
Hardness, Opacity and Density = 100
Zoom in to about 800% - 1000%
Set your foreground to colour 1 on the outline colour chart (#BA7848) and start at whichever point you prefer. I find it easier to start the highest point, in this case his ear. (You can move the image later using your move tool if you need to).
When you get to his inside ears (coloured lighter on the screen shot) change to colour 3 on the outline colour chart (#D99079)
