Before I make another comment, I'd like to ask, how close is this to the original? It looks highly compressed, as does the reference photo. It would'nt be fair to offer a critique on something so grainy, I'm sure it looks better in person. Would also like to know the range of pencils you are using, it does'nt look like you're going any softer than an HB. If you are going softer, then it looks like you're applying it too lightly giving it a see through texture. (I made another comment after all!) if you want to send a bigger file to my e-mail for better clarity, feel free.
