CBinnsIllustration: Thank you! I made the changes you mentioned, great critiques! I did take some artistic liberty regarding the lighting on the face to give it a scarier vibe, I know it's technically not 100% correct but I feel it works better this way!
darktiste: Interesting feedback on the skin texture, I want it to appear very rough like and not human so I did take some artistic liberty in that regard. I could probably blur it a bit but I don't want to lose the skin texture so I think I'll leave that aspect as is for now. Thanks for your input as always!
Abnormal: Thank you! Your feedback is excellent! Just incorporated pretty much everything you illustrated with your paintover, thanks for taking the time to do that, really helped me improve the piece. I really need to pay more attention to my grayscale values it seems so I'll keep an eye on that for future illustrations. Thanks again!

Made some final changes to the illustration based on the feedback received. It was a bit tricky because I have flattened the layers a few steps ago but I think I managed quite well. I'm very satisfied with the image now, I think it's a substantial improvement with the feedback implemented, so thanks to all who contributed! Here is the final:
Next up a new sketch, started on this quite some time ago and finalized the linework recently, it took some time given the complexity of the image but I'm overall satisfied with the sketch. The figures were referenced from The Pose Archives here. I tried to stay true to the overall gestures/poses of the reference while coming up with what are some interesting character designs, I hope! Any input before I get started on some color tests would be most appreciated. Below is the sketch:
