Jephyr: Thank you! Glad you like those two images as I'm very happy with how they turned out as well. Got some great input from this forum so special thanks to everyone who offered feedback! I agree about the metallic looking skin, I tend to use high contrast for my images and this can cause the skin tone to look a bit unnatural, so I'll try to be more conscious of this for my next paintings! Thanks again for the positive words and support, really appreciate it!

I'm currently busy with my studies focusing on lighting, doing a lot of traditional studies as well in my sketchbook. I'll try to post them when I have a significant number of them done, but right now I want to apply what I've been learning with a new illustration.
Below is a finished sketch of the 'All-New Captain America'. I had a general reference for the pose (you can view it here) although I didn't want to be a complete slave to it, didn't just want to do a photo study for this one so I drew him as the new version and attempted something more dynamic with his pose. Overall I'm fairly satisfied with it but I would love to hear any input before I apply color, so please let me know!
