Getting good! Is this from RotJ? The hairstyle makes me think it is. Not sure if it helps, but if you think more of the shadows instead of the outlines... the way you did with the nose, you know?
I love shaded drawings myself (a la Zyene), but dang, they can be hard to do! And line drawings can be very powerful, I think, very suggestive - but they do require some sure, bold strokes to bring out personality. It depends on what you want to accomplish with your art, don't you think?

I started with outlines, thinking line-drawing might be the way to go (a la coloring books) But shading might be where it's at.
