this is a great lesson! your measurement tips are very helpful, Im going to try it out for my next project. Im not good at cross hatching though, I usually go about my shadings using tissue, but I hope I can be good at it, I seems to over do it most of the time (the cross hatching that is) and always end up with a mess lol. Thanks again, it was helpful. Your portrait is dead accurate.

I'm a sucker for the crosshatching!

And knowing when to stop- that can be difficult.
