I know that you probably want to "vignette" the lower part of this, but this is not the stage to do it in.
In an underpainting, make your drawing clear, concise and always define your edges - don't fudge it. You can lose and find your edges, but be accurate. Define those sleeves and arms.
I'm not sure what I am seeing on my computer screen (and I could be wrong) but the tones look uneven in this painting. I hope you are working in thick enough paint. You shouldn't be thinning your paint with anything at this stage.
