Recently I learned some new techniques in Photoshop! After using some grunge brushes in the background for both Totori (the figure with the blue background) and Milla (the figure with the burgundy background) I added some nice glows and vector shapes on top. I must say the result is lovely. The colours stand out nicely and they don't take away from the figures themselves.

I incorporated some vector designs created in Adobe Illustrator in both of these images. It was a bit difficult doing some of the shapes in Photoshop, so I used Illustrator. Fortunately I could use the swirl and curve tools there. They made life much easier. The strokes came from stretched circles.
I used various effects in photoshop, such as colour and gradient overlays, which I don't use as frequently as I probably should.
I particularly like the Totori one because of the flask. It's like a beautiful experiment where colours just burst from success! I also liked the additional glow effects. I added some to her eyes to make them sparkle a bit more.
