Joan, Sharon, Alexandra, Allan, Linda,Thank you very much to all of you, this is really so useful !!
I think I will end up with a new layer as there is reworking needed a bit everywhere!
It is fantastic to be able to ask for help to people that really understand so well what it is all about! And very good to be whipped and not get lazy about going really all the way through.

Sharon that is actually a very good trick, I think I can do it even cheaply: I normally print my reference in B&W to scale, using the poster setting on the printer and taping A4 sheets together. I can then have a good smaller print for finer details.
Also recently I have been drawing my son with a mirror behind me, so that he could see both himself and my drawing and listening to an audiobook. That worked quite well to make him sit still.
Thanks again, I am back at the easel
Ilaria
