Painted this custom head sculpt for Mafex TDKR Superman

This was my second attempt at painting a head sculpt and I’m very happy with how it turned out. Kept it simple. Sculpt is by Tony Mei. I love the TDKR Superman figure but I just wanted something different for the face and the Ed McGuinness style fits his chunky body perfectly. Hardest part was matching the skin tone. Months of searching, waiting, and painting practice paid off!

First attempt painting a head sculpt. How can I improve?

This was my first time painting a figure like this. Really struggled with small details in the eyes, as well as matching the skin tone. I may end up dipping this in alcohol and starting over, but I also have a second head sculpt I’d like to paint similarly. How can I improve my technique or my tools?
