those are really well drawn heads. I've been interested in painting myself, it's mesmerizing to me the things drawing/painting can bring! Good luck on practicing features!

Thanks! I'm doing my best to figure out mistakes myself but it ain't always easy

- another 4 hours of heads (drew 6 heads, I have now 9 in total)
