Remember, Pat, that you're including these details (wrinkles, etc.) You're not showcasing them. Once you have the face blocked in, and wrinkles indicated, step back and assess what needs to be emphasized, and what can be downplayed. I've seen many attempts to include wrinkles, with no regard to what priority they should have. This is what separates the artists from the photo copiers.
Also, be careful about the hairline. On your drawing, there's no smooth transition from hair to face. You don't want it to look like a wig. I know that your drawing is just a study, so forgive us for picking at it so much, but you can pick and choose what is of value to you.
