progress on my Mike painting

I thought it would be fun to share my progress on Mike. I am doing more of a real portrait with no exegeration. It is a challenge for me and I welcome that. The final value study of mike has a weird looking left eye, just because I really wanted to see the detail to tranfer to canvas. 

Gary Value Study

This is my Value study painted in photoshop and it was off a sketch done by my Teacher Jason Seiler. References were given to create a full value study from and to learn how to look at the values within a shape. I worked right up to a minute it was due and I hope I was successful with the assignment, but I am also hoping to find improvements in my work! Please feel free to comment on the work! Thank You and goodnight
