Steampunk Portrait Study, Asking for help

[Jager]

Cool mate, glad it was helpful. You got a good start there so it should be fairly easy fixes I think.

Oh my god, thank you so much! Your paintover is very close to my first tought and you did remarkable job when you explain my mistakes. I am absoulty agreed with you. Now i can see clearly what's wrong in my work... I was thinking about to save me from my boring hairs, beards etc... But i didn't find anyway yet, but you show me very clearly there isn't just one way or "true" way.

I am really glad for sharing my pre-work and asking critique. It's very effective for improving skills after more more moaarrr practice :)

Thank you Jager. Your short and brilliant advices give me an another perspective!

I'll work on that and i'll try to catch a more dynamic and realistic result! :)
