Dan,

it is not so difficult as it seems.
There are enough guidelines on the internet how to paint good realistic faces.
One of my secrets is is to use a good primer.
for intance i use the Andrea acyllics and roughly paint al the shadow lines and the basic color with it and set it aside for 24 hours to let it dry.
After that i start to paint the face with oils.
On the internet you can find a simple guide line written by Gino Poppe.
When you use this to start to paint your faces it can't go wrong.
and don't be afraid to use darker colors for your shadows. you can always blend them away afterworts.
if you have any more questions don't be afraid to ask them.


greetings

Eric.
