I would say the forehead is still to angle back in the side view take a angle measurer and check the angle of it almost 90 angle.Also on the side view you can see that the cranium is resemble almost like a squash egg it flat at the top and rounded at the back.Be careful when you draw in 3/4 view check the negative space around the shape for more accuracy.But more then anything put a middle line for the face to help the construction and proportion of the feature of the face.

Here some additional resource since i know most of the newer artist are in terrible need of quality resource also try to visit the resource section of the forum for ton of good place to visit.

For those foot i would advice you research how comic artist do there cross hatching or try to study master of the renaissance this will help you translate the form of the foot in a more effective manner.

I paint on a 25-33% of zoom when i didnt want to render alot, and just use the brush to mix colors.
