Leslie,

Yes, I see what you mean. Funny, once I've posted an image, I can see it afresh. I've also taken some advice here and started keeping a mirror that I can use to look at the image over my shoulder. What a useful tool.

I've darkend the shadow in his left (our right) cheek, cooled off the lights a bit, as Tom suggested, although all of the color needs a bit of work, I think I'm getting there. I've attempted to remold his right cheek and eye socket. Looks to me like I've still got a problem, as his forehead is not modeled right. I've got to work on those values a bit to bring the shape in line.

Before I go any further on his suit, any comments on the carnation arragement? In or Out? I'm pretty sure I can pull it off, but do you think I need it? Seems like it would give me a nice circular movement. Maybe I'll tape one on for a dry run.
