I hope my last comment didn't sound arrogant. It wasn't intended to be. This is a fantastic likeness. People can look at it and they know exactly who it is. I just thought I could see a desire to capture realism in your work on this one. It reminds me a lot of some of my early drawings. Except yours are better. You have a great eye for proportions that I sorely lacked! Tomorrow I will be uploading some of my early works, you'll be able to see what I mean! ;) IF you were going for realism here is a tip for your next one. Don't outline the mouth. It flattens the lips. Unless the person is wearing lipstick there is no solid dark line around it. The lips are simply slightly darker pigmented skin. Most often there is a line of light above the upper lip because it sticks out farther and is usually hit by the light source. There is usually a dark shadow under the lip because the protrusion of the lips cast a shadow. It is these lines of light and dark that separate the lips from the rest of the face, and the reason we always want to outline them. If you want to do stylized work I can't help you much. I'm terrible at it! If you want to work in realism in graphite you are very close to all ready being there. There are a just a few things you are doing wrong. I know from being there that you probably read what I wrote about the lip then went back and looked a your source photo and saw it this time. Once you learn the rules it's like a light turns on and your whole way of looking at things change! I'll be more then happy to help walk you through your next piece if realism is the way you want to go.

looks very nice I have one advice mabe if you make the line more in one flow it will look beter it already looks great but maby the line at the right side of his mouth its a litle shaky and let the eye's speak if jou know what I mean than if those 2 are perfect than it will look sublemy fantastic:)
