I like your progress. Your rendering of light is always interesting.
First sketch was way more dynamic and interesting imo with those large diagonals of the city in the background, and why the ref image works. Judge and analyse your comps by their major rhythms, these dictate the feel and read of your piece. Always refer back to the original sketch or inspiration if you're losing way.
Please try and go past your normal inclination and add some finishing to something. You are leaving all of these things mostly in a sketch state. That's fine for practice...but you are also training yourself to not finish anything if that's all you do. You will become a master unfinisher :)
