well, that's a lot better than i could do... but a couple of things to point out:

1. the other picture of wallisch didn't have anything on his face which makes it exponentially harder (facial structure, shading, not making the nose look retarded).

2. it's a little simple, but simplicity is key.

3. try to add a little more shading, it's a tad bland.

anyway, that's a dope picture, a lot better than my stick figures, but those were just a few pointers to continue. by the way, martini is the man! i just met him at jib academy last weekend.

head and all is good, but the hands need some touch up. hands are always the hardest part, good work

Squint your eyes and look at the reference photo and your drawing to compare the values of light and dark.  If you just draw the values rather than drawing features by outlining it will look a lot better, squinting your eyes makes it easy to see the darkest darks, and lightest lights in a drawing.
