Looking great! I love the focus pulled to his face with the blurry neck, the cast shadows from the hair on his cheeks and nose give it a real lifelike feeling too. The hair itself looks a little too fuzzy and blurry though - I can see you put in some hard strands too but I think it's not enough. Don't know what to suggest since I'm not great with hair, but just my observations. Looking great though still, your portraits are really kicking ass these days! I really liked that blue sea creature painting before as well - its cute, with the eyes, but overall has this kind of melancholy feeling too, really nice ^^
