Since this is a copy, it would be helpful if you posted the painting that you are copying from.

So far this looks OK, but could you post a larger detail of the face? On my screen I can't see any shading...it looks very flat. If your painting does indeed look like the posted picture...let us know and we'll go from there.

Underpaintings are supposed to be quite finished and detailed. At first glance, your values look OK....don't go any darker. Let's post some more pix here and then we'll go into more detail.

Cynthia: Could you move this whole thread to the Old Master Copies section?
