Good job pushing through it, it takes a lot of willpower to do so. I always feel worse when I let a bad mood stop me from being productive.
Keep up the studies dude, that wireframe one looks like a really cool idea. I think that your drawing accuracy could be a good thing to work on, if you want to see where you weren't accurate you could put your painting directly over the ref as a sort of post-game, then go in and fix what's off. If you do this you should be a little bit more accurate each time. What's jumping out to me most is that the cheek is coming out too far and the eye is too big and low. It helps to get a line down that you know is accurate, sometimes by checking it against the edge of the frame (or any imaginary horizontal or vertical line), and then judge all your new lines against what you know is good. With no frame of reference the drawing aspect can be a bit overwhelming.
