Need help analyzing a painting.

Need some help with my digital painting... any tips and thoughts much appreciated?

• Hi everyone, well just recently I started learning about digital painting... and now after some nice practice, I am currently working on my very first digital painting, which is of course very simple portrait of my self :) I guess everyone's first digital painting is their portrait :)) The stage I am currently in you can see here: http://i227.photobucket.com/albums/dd112/nikolavejin/new.jpg As you can see I did most of the painting, but it's still not very finished so I guess now I need to work on details (blending, polishing) for a while... Now I would really appreciate if you could look at this painting and give me some tips on what you like and what you don't like on painting, and what should I do with it next... and anything you say about it would be very helpful for me since I am very willing to fix any mistakes and make this looks good. It doesn't matter if you are professional in digital painting or not I need everyone's opinion :) Tnx ;)
