This was a 44 minute study, try to work quicker focusing on larger shapes rather the detail.

Anon, i haven't read Loomis but i am drawing portraits from over three years.
And i can tell you that these two peraons don't look the same.
The proportions are not at all same. And in my opinion details of measurements and proportions matter and yes that of shading is a sexondary thing.

either the face is too big or the cranium mass is too small.

compare the overall shape between the drawing and the ref.

>>2498920
why is it so stiff? what paper did you draw it on?
>>
>>2498964
i don't think it's the paper.
The edge control needs work.
He has firm edges where there should be soft ones and vice versa.

You are correct, this was more of a structure study then a value, but will have a greater awareness for value in next Drawing.
