Hello there! You have been visited by a Critique Ninja! We stealthily roam the site, looking to leave thoughtful and useful criticism, as per the spirit of CRITmas . Mind if I just hop on to business, then? Just swooping in and out again - that is the Ninja way...!For all the nice things this portait has going for itself - the likeness, the fine brushwork, the light and shading - I think I spot a slight mistake which dampened my appreciation some.The difference between his jawbones makes him look assymetrical in an unwanted way - on the left, it curves sooner than it does on the right - the corners are at different hights.I also think you need a bit of light on that metal under his chin, to separate it more from his collar. Both are very dark and nigh indistinguishable.I still like it though. He looks tough but sympathetic too, I think!Cheers, and have a great day!
