Excellent facial likeness, but I'm not convinced about the armour!

If this a representation of the Heath Ledger character from the film A Knights Tale it falls down badly on the armour . If they have just pinched the Title to represent a knight it's OK .
I really enjoyed that film the Language and humour were modern day but the Armour , clothing , filth in the streets was more realistic than many so could historic films , My favourite Character in the Film was Geoffery Chaucer

My English is bad, but I'll try. In this work, I use acrylic paint on the scale 75. The base layer is black metall. The first layer is a light Trash metall. The second layer is light Speed metall. And the shadow layer is pure black. First primed surface. Then covered with a metallic base layer. Further work exclusively butting brush. From light to dark and from dark to light. First thicker paint do intermediate rough sketch. Then, a wet paint create a smoother transition. And do not forget to do everything butting brush, so the metal is a more natural. Thank you for your feedback and support, I will be glad if someone could help.
