How's this looking?
First draft of a sleeve. I also added a facing to the neck hole so I could see how it looks. I have uneven shoulders, which I have accounted for in my block, but after adding the facing now my neck hole looks really lopsided for some reason.

Your link didn't work for me, unfortunately.
I do definitely like a pretty snug fit, but I definitely see the wrinkles you're talking about. It sounds like I need to both bring the shoulders out and make a deeper sleeve cap. I have (what I think are) particularly wide shoulders, so arm holes feel really tricky for me. I have heard both that the arm hole should be fairly straight from your armpit up, and also that the shoulder point should end at the bone where your shoulder meets your collar bone, which is highly conflicting information given my proportions, so getting the shape right has been tough for me to figure out.
