After reading Chuck's post, I used my "country calipers" to measure the neck. That's no illusion, The neck is definitely much longer than in the photo. But I still see the body as over-sized. The left shoulder (his right) extends much farther on the painting.

Bryan, would you consider calling this a study and starting fresh? You've done a pretty nice job here, but you could take the lessons learned on this version to perfect the final piece. This young man has such a pleasant face, I'd like to see it developed to its potential.
