With the storytelling, think the knife could stand out more, since that’s a big story element, should be a focal point, and there’s not enough visual contrast, so you should work with the values there so pops out from the background.

I can't exactly help with much since i'm an student too, but i'll point some small stuff i noticed. 1. the neck doesn't curve that much even with the head looking down, and it must follow the spine curve. 2. the trapezius muscle helps shape the neck 3. the esternocleidomastoid attaches both to the clavicle and the sternum m it doesn't curve musch aswell. for the colors i think you should put the whole piece in grayscale and compare the tones, the characters colors and the background color is almost the same, try making the characters shadows darker and making the background slightly lighter.

June 30 Challenge - Day 1

Trying to incorporate stuff I learned from portrait road. Drew my OC this time. Struggling with keeping face looking the same in all angles (and fail :x)

One thing I constantly struggle with is rendering it always feels as if I’m missing a step or theirs a gap between my knowledge. Feel free to critique my lighting, shading, and etc.

WIP Jay Enhypen
I am struggling with capturing his face from my refrence, I made a mistake with choosing my reference a bit, I chose the refrence pose where the face wasn't fully visible and used other refrence for his face so I had to adjust the face angle and how he is looking at the viewer which led to facial structure changes, I can't add my reference in this site because it doesn't support more images. I want you to help me with how do I make look more like Jay.

Some arm studys. I wanted to practice the anatomy for the ice arm of the eleven archer character

About linework in general
I finished it by adding this little walrus imp thing. I believe this is currently the absolute limit of my abilities. If there is anything to improve in this i am currently blind to it. I see this as a problem, since if i do not recognize my mistakes i cannot improve further, therefore if anyone can poke holes in this it would be deeply appreciated. Or maybe i should just start learning values already, since linework is kinda the only thing i've ever done.
