Hey there! It's looking really good so far! I'm not sure what reference you used for this portrait, but I do think it would benefit from some additional lighting. In my paintover, I added light coming from the side, assuming the primary light source is located to the character's right. In general, for the illuminated areas, you could keep the colors within a range of desaturated purples and blues, en in some of the darker regions. Meanwhile, areas such as the forehead and the tip of the nose can lean slightly warmer, using subtle reds or desaturated lilacs. This would help introduce a bit more color vibrancy to the portrait. :) Hope this helps! | Artwod Feedback
