Yes, you have at least 3 pencils 😆 . Get the most extreme soft pencil and use it on your pupils, light doesn't generally appear to escape from your eyes so you want it as black as your soul Dawn 😂. Once you have that bit super dark you will likely start to mentally adjust the dark elsewhere and it will start to pop out more. Only problem is the soft pencil can smudge easily. You can carefully use hairspray as a fixative (though it best done at the end really), lay paper over it or turn it round to avoid smudging. Also you can just use the rubber at the end to add some highlights and clean it up those putty rubbers can be good to pick up specific areas of graphite or you can sharpen a normal one. Look good though 😃. Got something else to say I will tell you later as I need to do something else now

Ok, so its the eyes, your actually very good at drawing them (you don't fall into the trap of drawing all the iris which makes people look like a complete psychopath 😂) but there is one thing that very slightly out and once you know it, your going make it look great next time. The space between your eyes is about the same distance as an eye itself. At the end of the day it's a golden proportion thing there is tiny amount of variation between people some a tiny bit more, some a tiny bit less but it's usually about a eye width. You can think of it as the space for your 3rd eye 😁 Other things that make drawing a face easy are knowing in from the side the bottom of your earlobes line up with your mouth. Looks like you got that about right 🙂 . The edge of peoples mouths generally end where the pupils of the eye in a relaxed expression sometimes that can be useful to know Also as a fun body proportion thing your elbow to your wrist is pretty much the same length as your foot. 🙂 Drawing is a waist a time though you cant learn anything from it 😉🤗
