Lil Wayne Progress #2

five days after starting the under painting, i progressed a little bit more and into the colors and tones that i wanted
i tried ti implant more yellows and reds into the under painting of his face
Even more the more i look at it all, his face is one of the areas that gave me the most trouble. I struggled with the curvature of his face and the outer eye line that is barely seen.
I felt it was important to include his tattoos but not have them overpower the painting as well as show his signature braids.
Almost completely toned down and his checks actually look like he's puffing which is a plus and i added some color highlights from on his hairline and forehead.
