Congrats on completing the head construction course! This was a tough one, so be kind to yourself and celebrate your progress. Remember, developing these skills takes time and practice. Consider diving deeper into anatomy, exploring different head construction methods, or experimenting with light and shadow to enhance your understanding of tone and structure. Best of luck!

Thanks @Michael Hampton! After going around in circles with Portrait drawings for the last couple of year I think your course finally click enough for me not to just learn a rote process, but to actually start developing my own process. I'm sure there are many who feel the same way, so thank you for that!
My only parting questions is about the final step is any drawing process, a finished piece. While you give guidance on where to take this from a next step, I assume most of us are taking course like this to create better final pieces. Is it your opinion that after, say, we put down shading, that now a piece would be in final Rendering and Detailing phase? If that is the case, is it just a matter of final steps are fairly universal and\or medium specific (graphite, oil, digital, etc...) so mentioning them here is beyond the scope?
Before year's I'm going to start trying to actually do monthly completed pieces in Graphite and I'm kind of look at how to bridge the last part of this process with a final product, so all advice is welcome.
