lookin pretty good, I haven't tried any portraits yet but I think the colored part of his eyes needs a little white paint to show some reflection like the actual picture does, this would make them look not so flat.

Good luck!

Paper is so unforgiving....once U get it down pat on paper ....shirts and clothing will be no problem.....Pourous surfaces give more room for mistakes

Looks darn good to me. I just did my first and it turned out to be much harder than I thought it would be.

I used a stencil for the outline and the black around the eyes and the eyes and teeh witch is pretty much the hole thing lol
