Woow you do a lot every day! I really like your paints, especially the first value sketch in your last post! I'd recommend you focus on colour, especially colour theory and indirect light. Try to avoid (almost) pure grey or black when using colour, because it just won't blend in nicely. The other thing i noticed is your pictures come out blurred very often, maybe try to find a brush with a hard edge and experiment with textures to give it a less blurry appearance?
I have a quick overpaint for you to illustrate my points (if you are alright with that!). Things I've done are:
-Increased contrast and rendering
-Used more indirect and coloured light and shadow. (used grey blue for the skull instead pure grey)
Don't take every thing I changed in the painting for granted, I'm still practicing colouring myself. But I think this can help with most of your paintings. I hope I helped, love to see more!
