If you want to do more of those skull studies, maybe you can somewhere get a cheap real (fake) skull? That's a lot more challenging than drawing from photos but also more rewarding, learning-wise. I really like your pencil lines btw.
Heh, 4 hours is not really slow imho! It's a nice painting of your friend, I like the cyan/orange contrast, especially with his face lit from below. I just find the high shoulder/shoulderpad a bit irritating, not sure whats going on there, form-wise, and if it is sitting too high or if that's part of the armour.
Foreshortening is haaaard, yeah D:

Keep it up!
