There are problems with the forms and drawing of the face. Rather than attempt an almost full figure painting like this one, perhaps concentrating on making the face correct would be a better way to go for your next attempt. There is also too much reflected light which is destroying the feeling of three dimensionality. I applaud your determined efforts, but mastering the fundamental forms of the face and being able to convincingly render its three dimensionality accurately should come first. Doing some Bargue drawings or cast drawings might be a good place to start.
