Nice work on the new studies. And I can see how they are helping improve your illustration work. Keep at it and don't let up, as foundational studies require prolonged dedication and maintenance. I would also suggest you add to the studies you're already doing some master copies. The point isn't necessarily to do 1:1 exact copies of artworks from artists you admire (though some people do go to that extent), but to gain insights into their sensibility and try to incorporate them. Although you can still gain some of those insights from simply analyzing their work, there's nothing more direct and effective than doing actual master copies, and that's the reason artists have been doing it for centuries and still do it today, and even masters continue to do them as part of their studies.
