Hi Chris,
good to see you in action.
I like the fresh expression of this tough little boy.
The light uniform background works well with the bright colors of the clothing.
The one thing that I would like to be "brutal" about is that his nose ends exactly in the edge of his cheek. I would suggest to let the nose be the dominant part. Either by graying out the cheek or taking it a little back.
And I also feel that the contour at the eye lid (over his left eye) should be more soft. Look at it squinting.
The values at the neck could be darker.
When looking at the reference you see that the lightest skin values are at the nose, cheek and ear, the parts that stick out. Everything else is more or less darker.
I like your fresh approach, Allan
