Hi Garth,
Not sure if anyone has mentioned this to you in any of your previous posts but you'll have a much easier time creating quality work when you work from better reference photos.
The photo you painted this from was shot with harsh frontal light (probably flash) and with the camera much too close to the subject, giving you lots of almost fish-eye distortion in the head shape and features.
No amount of wonderful color, drawing, brushwork or whatever can compensate for severe problems that stem from the source material itself.
