Hey nastobi123, advice for post #7: it just takes time, I can't remember how many of still life studies I have done in my life, they seem boring but they help alot, try to plan the stages better, at first limit yourself to only 4 shades of grey to get the feel of it, don't be shy of using lasso tool or vector selection for those crisp edges, and if possible try to make still life from real life as you'll notice way more details.
As for the face, are you planning to make a daily 5 from head? I'd suggest trying 5 referenced and 5 from head, or studying loomis books (those are great, last year I copied page to page from his head's book). But keep practicing, that's the only secret.
