Here's my 10 minute over painting. Your image has more expression and more unique facial features but that's not what I'm trying to fix here. I think the cheek bones are overly emphasized in your image. They don't look like that in real life even if you're skinny. His head is too narrow and long which fucks with the ear placement. You don't need to have that moustache stubble yet. Just focus on the anatomy. Your nose was all kinds of fucked up and too small so I tried to fix that. There's also an unrealistically long gap between his nose and mouth.

I think you could save time by doing some proper line art before even going into values. When you actually do go in with values you might want to show some more range even at the start. Your values are stuck between 40-80. It's a good idea if you're working in traditional but you're working digitally so you can tweak that shit later!

I don't know if he was supposed to be super stylized in your original images. If that's the case, you should have said so. If he's super evil you might want to make the eyes smaller.

Anyways. This looks nice and you seem to know your shit. I hope I don't sound too harsh...
