@CBinnsIllustration - Hey, thanks a lot! Well it's funny you say that, cause I'm starting to work on developing pieces more, so I'll go back and add more to that piece. It was 1 that I developed a bit more than usual, but an issue of mine is never (or just very rarely) bringing any pieces to a more polished state.
@Jephyr - Yeah, I need to start doing some more studies, I've been slacking on those a bit in favor of the more fun stuff of making original content lol. Thanks for the kind words!

A major issue of mine that I've noticed is that I rarely ever bring my pieces to a completed state. If I do spend time on a piece, it's usually no more than 4-ish hours. After spending that much time on a piece, it's sorta like the fun part of it is over (at least for me). In the first few hours that's when you make all the big changes and your still making big impacts on the piece. But then you start getting to the detailed part which you could spend several hours doing and see very little difference in the piece as a whole from it. But that's something I am going to begin to address in my art. I've made a art tracking page in my notes, to be able to list projects I'm working on, and see the major ones that I want to bring to a fully rendered (to the best of my abilities) state and have a constant reminder to work on them!
This first piece is a WIP I'm working on (thing coming out of the tall grass), something about it seems kinda off though. Not sure if the creature is too big, or I put too strong foreshortening on it or something else...
