Thank you very much!
I loved your feedback, I'll fix it using your recommendations and post it again another time.
I have a problem to understand how far can I go with my paintings and impairs its quality, I don't know how to choose good references and I don't do to much studies before create something :(
I'll work hard on my next piece.

Push your work to your best ability don't worry about how far it goes the painting is done when you feel it done just try to atleast finish work to your highest expectation don't put the bar to high or to low.If anything else you can save a version of the file before you try something risky. Use your tool to there full potential. Use reference for pose,texture,pattern,anatomy, mood, mix idea,,color palette etc but get inspired if you don't have good reference there plenty of free reference on pinterest or google find a good way to have them somewhere when you can see them all at one there software for that.You just need to know some vocabulary for the reference search to find what you looking for so be fearless in your reference gathering. Don't just collect them study them like i said before you can study them for pose, texture, pattern,anatomy, mood, mix idea,,color palette and more you just gotta find what you can extract from them think of your reference as a creative juice what can you extract.

@darktiste, Thank you again for your feedback! I'm trying to incorporate some Pinterest researches every day and it's being useful for me, cause I'm meeting some new ways and another artists   . I started to see some YouTube tutorials too. I want to bring some new stuffs using what I've learning soon.

Edit: actually, don’t know if you would consider selling the screaming guy. If you’d be open to it, could you pm a price please?

I think the only immediately useful thing I have to say is to be careful with head construction methods that use spheres. The brain isn't round, so to rely on this sort of structure on anything but frontal views you'll be forced to compensate on the facial area or back of the head depending on where the ears are falling.


That's it! I'm also happy to see a compatriot here and you English seems good fine enough.
If that helps, simply using it was what did the trick for me. When in doubt I'd google the word or possible expression to see definitions, what's more common and and the usage in context, and sometimes I still break the thesaurus open when I feel I'm getting too repetitive, but insist in using the language for long enough and there'll come a time you'll struggle to remember how daunting it used to be. :)
