3 versions (the process)

Recently a surfer friend asked me a portrait. 

He gave me some pictures of himself longboarding so I could work on "likeness". 

Here is the process that brought me to the final image:

1) I've done the first watercolor to study the position and the silhouette.
It's maybe my favourite because it has a sort of primitivity. 

2) The main porposal of the second is to study colors and the shape of the wave.

3) The third is the final work, with a duble plexiglass frame.

what do you think about it?
I'd love to hear your opinion.
