Hope you don't mind me being honest, Muddy, but I agree with dOOd about the neck.

I appreciate you haven't finished it yet, but at the mo, I think he looks a very angry young man.

On the positive side, I think it shows a lot of promise.
It will be interesting to see the finished picture.

Re: WIP Trying a portrait

The thing is if you are not painting from life -which is better- you have to get a really good photo preferably several of your subject .This was taken from a unposed snapshot .

Excellent, Muddy, I wish I had your talent. I never progressed beyond matchstick men - then someone named Lowry stole my idea!

Thank you Azure .
I have wasted too much time in just not doing.
