Cindy, I agree with you something need to be done with the line under the chin to soften it. I will give your suggestion a try.

The companion picture has a shadow line under the chin that is about 1/4" thick. Since mine will hang next to the other one, I was trying to come up with ways to make them look more closer in style to each other. On the companion picture that very thick shadow seems to work, whereas on mine it looks out of place. I guess that was a bad idea!

I have worked some more on it. Lon, I did wonder a bit with the right eye and fixed it, but the ear is correct. Thanks for pointing it out.

Cindy, I lessened the intensity of the jaw line and made added more gradual shadow.

I also worked some more on the hair, fixed the collar of the shirt and brightened up his left cheek.
