Young Aang Realism

It seems like it's been ages since I've done something Avatar-related... I miss the good ole days

I'm kind of nervous about posting this because this is the first time I have ever done realism on a person... Of course I used a reference, but I'm still not sure if it looks quite right because I've not done this before... I did change the mouth from a frown to a smile, which is much more Aang-like, and I made him bald and gave him an arrow. Even though he looks like he'd be about what, seven? Without the arrow you couldn't really say it was Aang, so I through it in there. Aang did master airbending fairly early.

I did the skin, face, and hands back in August and started on the robe, but I lost interest and I've been slowly working my way through that robe ever since until I fiiiiiinally just now finished it. I've never liked clothing folds...

Any help would be greatly appreciated since like I said this is my very first time with realism!

EDIT I made the lips a bit smaller. Does that look better?
