Beautiful work! How big is it? Is it compressed charcoal, or conte?
This model sits still, and as long as you wish! When I was in children's art class, we drew figurines; mostly animals. Then we would redraw them from a different angle. The teacher (my grandfather) could train our eyes by sitting down and showing us the linear mistakes in our drawing before shading.
Nice work! You are very industrious, and I agree, anyone can learn to paint and draw. Not everyone will do it well, or become professional. I don't like teaching, because I expect too much, and most people in our day and time want immediate results. It takes time.
