Steve Carell - I grade this about a 'B'. Nice drawing, good proportions but just a so-so likeness. I was capturing a lot of defining features but feel I missed some key ones too. I could work the daylights out of it I suppose and capture more but it was late and I'm making a point of starting and finishing in 1-2 hours/day.
I think I got into details too soon. Once you get off to a nice start it's easy to start right in on the shading and finishing. But you have to take a break, look away for a while then look back with fresh eyes to see if the whole thing is working or not. Often when I do this I notice problems with the overall flow, tilt of the head or the way facial elements aren't quite working together (day two). I think I should have done this one more time with this one.
