Hi guys. Here is my paint up of a 1/6th scale Christian Bale/Bruce Wayne head for a client. It was done with an airbrush, water colors and some oils. I would love to hear your thoughts. It's the only way to improve. Thanks!

 
I think the flesh tone and hair coloring is pretty good. The eyes look too big/wide-open to me and the mustache looks really dark and thick. To be fair, it did look dark and thick in the lighting of some scenes -

But a lot lighter at other times -

Maybe you can find a happy medium.
 
The thing is, that's how the head is sculpted. I tired to narrow the mustache but instead it just looked like i was sloppy. I think i know what you mean about the eyes. I just went and looked at the actual piece. They don't appear that way in real life. I don't know if its the reflection in the gloss or what, but in the photo they look a bit different if that makes sense :)
