you've focusted so much on getting this wierd texture going that you've neglected everything else. Construction was wonky. Please try to understand that if you're going to make a realistic study like this anime eyes are just out of place. Some things just don't work and going against the current doesn't make you a messiah.Cheekbones and gawline is way off. Values also need some attention. Edges are one of your few tools at your disposal that can make your painting unique. Making everything have sharp edges is just flattening all the work you're trying to do to make it look 3d.
Lesson for you is stop trying to "make it" with gimmics. Just attain substantial knowledge of the basics.
