Here is the reference(bookcover-scan) found in google:
Well, its really good and not a perfect copy, so it is not traced( ... perhaps the rough shapes, i dont know)
But, well, its just a copy of a photo, nothing more. Just a time-killer and a technic-training.(but, 20hours of drawing is good everytime.)
Every selfportrait in the sp-thread is more impressive to me.

This is beyond my current skill, but as Staff Sarge pointed out, it's a little flat under the chin. Maybe if you went back and really darkened in that area it would help. I think that will improve this already incredible drawing.
What is the actual size of your drawing?
