I wouldn't say it matches up perfectly.
From the look of it, every single part of his body needs to be thicker. Especially the penis.

Your model is skinnier than the reference. :U
The mouth is too low, Legs are too skinny, hands are too flat, arms are too skinny, nose too flat.
Those are the things I can see so far

I matched up the right side and mirrored.
The head doesn't match because his head is leaning a bit
I just don't understand why everything looks so off in the renders
He looks like the child of an alien who raped an Asian person.
anyhow, I think the shoulders need to be broader.
Make him look less like an alien. In other words, trash the reference and go from what you have and what you think needs to be changed.
That's the thing, he can't trash the reference. He is learning to use the references for character modeling in a class. The whole point is to follow it. And llama edit the left side to follow refs more.
Exactly. That's why you trash the ref. Because normally, in a modeling class, the teachers teach an assigned curriculum, so it's usually what is required, rather than what works.
Well, I DO agree with that.
i do.Quote:

this way you know where to put all your defining lines.
you're also making a common mistake among new people, you're just making everything a straight grid, and then just mathing it to your reference.
you're not actually MODELLING in the definition it needs ( and you're just using WAY too many polies to begin with) if you can't make a proper low poly model with defined musclegroups, don't even think about raising the polycount, because you'll end up wuth the gummybear you've got right now.

this is what i mean, look at the back, arms and upper torso., and then look at your own model.
now ofcourse this is a stylised model, but that's besides the point, he defines the proper musclegroups, which make it look "right"
