"Call me Jack" - finished !!!
I've spent some time yesterday, trying my best to look around and improve things...
It is very possible that I've missed some here and there, but I can accept it as it is as well.
So I am done with this portraiture 👍
It's for my sister's birthday coming next month.
She won't be surprised as she's been following Facebook updates, and without a doubt she's well aware of the reason for making this drawing 😉👍
I need to find an adequate frame now 🐕.
Thank you for keen comments, support and following dear friends!

I have one tiny suggestion, but otherwise...

Wow! :o

When I look at this, I see a dog looking back at me. Not a drawing. A dog.

And a dog with recognisable character. Both friendly and clever. If you told me, he really can tie his own bow tie... I'd believe you. ;)

The niggling little something: Those indented whiskers to the right of the nose are laying on top of the hair and are not connected to it. If you just run a little 2H or HB into the roots (to fade those blunt ends), they'll look as though they're naturally springing from within the hair.

But that's all. I think this is superb.

Thank you Mike very much for keen words and your time to have a look and provide beneficial suggestion regarding whiskers - I have neglected it for sure, while looking around the whole drawing...
Your keen comment is priceless to me, even I know you're giving me more credits than I deserve 🐕
Thank you Mike 😊
