this drawing's deficits, which are as numerous as I suspected.

You'll be more comfortable and gain confidence more quickly if you think in terms of what's working and what's not quite working, rather than in terms of "deficits" or how you've failed. This is a nice piece as is, people like it, and it really wouldn't have occurred to me to make any particular critical suggestions about it, save in response to your specific questions.
Despite my writing at length, I wouldn't characterize my suggestions as an overhaul -- more like a tune-up. Most of the adjustments would be very slight and easily executed.
If you've learned only not to trust the darks in the typical reference photograph, you'll have learned a lot from this project.
