If you have to ask that question then you're probably not done. I would be curious to see an unsmothed poly mesh. From looking at your model I would say you still have some work to do adjusting edge flow and adding detail (to the ear in particular). In all the work I see you do Mc-fluery you are improving more and more. The more time you spend seeing problem areas all the way to completion the better and faster you will become. You have plenty of time in this comp to push yourself with this model! Try to be as objective and unforgiving as you can when comparing the model to your references. If there is a certain area you feel uncomfortable with then attack it! Sink in your teeth and don't let go! You are definately on the right track, dude!
