Quick portrait... tried to keep it simple, photo ref used.

*bump* this deserves some more replies...

I like the 'structural' quality of the rendering, you really nailed some of those shapes. The facial expression defintely benefits from this, the eyes are great.

I'm not so sure about the beard though, it took me a while to figure out what it was. It also makes the head look detached, along with the 'noodling' around that area. Hope you don't me saying that.

The red on the nose, is that facepaint? or just colouring, if so it seems to stand out too much imo.

You really got a great expression on his face. Good work.

like i said sometime ago: you're improving very quickly. nice expression, especially his eyes are well done.
