A Facial Portrait

When first I came across the reference photo of this drawing, the thought came to me that it looked like Zeus' face. Initially, I got it from my brother because upon seeing it, I was smitten.

Portraits like these are favorites of mine but oftentimes I don't get to make them because of the scarcity of reference with good values.
I do hope I make something like this in the coming weeks..

The progress..

Its been fun hosting you friends, have a great day.
