Nice! I think you're on the right track. Without sounding too much like a nitpicking ass-munch, here is a list of things you might consider before doing our collab, which will be on the Advanced board:

- Your facial proportions are pretty good overall but they could be better.
- The line work is a little scratchy and thick, consider tightening your line work a little.
- This portrait is sort of plain and lacks unique details, consider ref subjects with more form and expression in their faces.
- The canvas should be bigger, the height should be at least 550, I know, this one is just practice but keep that in mind for the Advanced collab.

I hope that helps and I hope I don't sound like a jerk.
