any crits? I need help adding texture

Hm. I think the lack of crits might be...are you aiming for accurate anatomy, or do you mean to go highly stylized? If you want an accurate, realistic portrait, than it has anatomy issues. On the other hand, it's looking a lot like a mask -- like those ebony carvings from Africa -- and it's hard to critique stylization.

Yeah its heavy stylized. I wasnt going for realistic, but I think it has some blending issues and texture. I struggle with anatomy and proportions, so thats why i tend to add my own little spazazz to things to cover up for it :/
