More shading tests... featuring Niccolo with an incredibly lopsided chin...

The top two worked out really well, and I especially like the ear on the right. The bottom right came out really nicely too, the blending is smooth yet still painterly. I also like your experiments with the line color. I think these different styles can be used for various moods. The top left seems a bit more serious and dramatic, while the top right is a bit lighter and seems a bit more like he's saying "Bro, really?" The bottom left makes him look very stylized compared to the others, and I like that. The softness of the bottom right seems to me like it would be great for a more tender moment.

I like the bottom right one, but I can't decide if it's too weird with all the hatching everywhere else, but I suppose since it's the face, a contrast to draw attention to the face is not entirely bad since faces are important.

...though it does make Niccolo look more tender...

Perhaps you could make the shading smooth, but more intense? Just have some sharper shadows along the cheek bone and under the jaw.

I like top-left abd bottom-right. Bottom-left is pretty flat.

Yeah, the crosshatching didn't work as well as I thought it would.
