darktiste: Thanks for your input and Happy New Year! Your feedback is on point, basically implemented every suggestion and the image is all the better for it. Thank you kindly for taking the time to illustrate your point as well, very much appreciate it!

Overall I'm quite happy with how the sketch turned out, although I'm open to feedback before beginning the painting process, so if something feels off please let me know! Below is the sketch:
