James Carter Art Self Portrait Drawing

A realistic self portrait drawing made with coloured pencils.
I loved and enjoyed drawing this self portrait so much. It's been an ongoing project of mine for a few months now, and I discovered it took me just over 60 hours in total to complete.
As I've always said, I'm a little sad when I finished a piece, because I just love the process SO much. I thought I finished it a few days ago, but I came back to it to edit a few things around and I think it looks pretty good.
What do you think?
I drew it with polychromos pencils, and I initially intend it to be just a tutorial drawing, as I feel I'd love to share with people how I draw, and help you try and draw realism. So hopefully I'll be able to create those soon enough for you.
So happy with how this has turned out, and I can't wait to get started on the next one.
