Ok so I think there is an improvement since the last one. still need to keep refining. But I think I'll just start another one.

Here is the first one.

Below is the second one.

major improvement with the second one. the hair looks too thin up top. on the right side, it seems like the hair from up top is flopping over a bald portion of your head. since it's falling behind your ears, you should try and show the hair growing from all around your forehead, maybe? the eyes and the area around them is a little primitive. that thing under your nose is lit too harshly, i think. softening it up might make it look more natural. nicely done lips and good tones all together.

Hi,

I'm not really a portrait person, I'm a product visualiser by profession, but I really feel the need to post how much I like your portraits, accurate or not - I love the impressionist quality and the vibrance they have. Keep at it!

Thanks for all the feedback and critiques. And Darkglade, I really needed to here that toady! Thanks! I usually don't like my work, but if others do, it keeps me going.

"Impressionist" was JUST the word I was looking for. Really nice colors!
