Figure studies

I've been trying to get to life drawing classes, but with two kids to put to bed at night, it has proved nigh impossible and definitely impractical. So I've started using myself as a model. The image below has been taken from a photo.  Future posts may get a bit more 'full monty'  I'm  not sure. Posting the painting makes me feel uncomfortable, I guess if I had a more Hellenistic physique I'd feel a little less bothered. 
I look miserable in the painting but I was feeling pretty chipper at the time.

I want to get better at portraiture but I have no-one but myself to model for me.

I'm getting quicker at myself portraits. Day one below.

Day 2

self at angle,

I'm pretty much done. The work needs tweaking on the lower section and a little here and there up on top.
