Did my best. The portrait turns out different on the photo though.

Hi! Nice portrait, the proportions are well established. Well done! Personally, I would work on shading and refine it a bit. Try putting down the general value of the face, clothes and shadows, don't forget the background, and then build up from there to create dimension. Shadowing the background is important to avoid dark, sharp lines like the one I see in the lightest part of the portrait. Also, it ties everything up and makes the artwork look complete. Overall you did amazing! Hope this helps you at all since I don't have access to this course in order to compare what is taught with what I think

Hi! I need help with my portrait drawings. The two men are copies from Rubens and the lady, the least finished one, is from Rembrandt i think. Do you have any suggestions on how to improve it? Also, I feel like the portrait with the lady is disproportionate, the nose is too long for the face for sure, i didn't notice it until now. That should be it, thanks!
