my fist sherlock portrait
I started drawing recently and this is one of my first portraits ....
I'm curious what you think ( I could improve) .... I'd really appreciate your honest opinion!

Re: my fist sherlock portrait
A really promising start! 
It might be helpful to do some more studies on proportions and lines. The details are fine, but if you draw for example an imaginary line from one ear to the other, you will see that the eyes need some alignment.
However, from what I see I'm sure you have talent. Go on!

Re: my fist sherlock portrait
Actually, I think you did quite a good work with the eyes already - it's just their position. You'll get better with each step

Re: my fist sherlock portrait
Thank you!
... At the moment I'm working at a drawing of John ... it's from the same picture as the Sherlock portrait
( the first promo pic that was released for series 3 ...) ... when it is finished I'll show you if you want me to ....
