Start out with something simple...one render, and try to keep the colors related to the render, and then post what you ended up with. It's kind of hard to tell someone what they need to do without seeing what they can do.

I always suggest having a saved database of images on your compy (most renders though I did go through a stage when I painstakingly made all my renders from online galleries.) so that when you're feeling lazy you can just pick them up and play with them. I love using textures and brushes, so I would always suggest downloading some off good graphics websites (aethereality.net or hybrid genesis.net have some really nice brushes and textures)

Even if you're colour blind I always find that a good way of matching colours is picking colours out of the picture itself (normally hair or eyes as they are the most predominant features. This also helps by making images blend more into the background giving the image.

Hope this helps.
