Medieval-looking Hitomi, unfortunately, is not especially Hitomi-looking Hitomi. I believe I've said before that it's difficult to draw Hitomi with long hair and still get her to look like Hitomi, and here the hairstyle with all the ringlets and the tight curly side-bangs is significantly different from her normal look. I guess you can still recognize her, and I guess she looks all right, but she doesn't look like herself.
REVISED Jan. 25, 2008: I made a few adjustments on the color scheme and touched up the lineart in spots, and I think it looks more like Hitomi. Fairly pleased with the pic now.
