Anthony, this is a very artistic drawing, and I congratulate you on focussing on your line quality. That is a very important aspect of drawing, and also allows the artist to improve faster. When you draw like this, your confidence in your lines will grow with each drawing. All the other considerations od light, line, edges, etc., are important, true, but you are learning something here that is not taught in schools. If a person cannot learn to make good lines, all the other data is useless. I have virtually ceased from critiquing my students work, except to inspire them to draw with more passion to each line by demonstration. If you have to go back and correct the lines, you lose. (That is the mindset, anyway.)
