Lots of effort here, good work!

One thing to think about when you paint... I notice you use the soft airbrush a lot when you want to paint rim light or strong light source... this is really evident in your photo paint overs. But I don't think this particular tool is really helping your cause. Light travels in a straight line so this means that among the traps and folds of fabric, or the abrupt transition of one plane to another on an object, there will be some hard edged light. So I encourage to paint in your light and not feather it in... be confident. This will add to the realism and help better describe the volume of the object your are painting. I am not saying the soft air brush doesn't have it's use, but when relied on solely it doesn't really work well. Always, when in doubt about how light interacts with an object source the proper ref! I hope this makes sense:) Cheers.

Hey! thanks for your crit :) really appreciate it. You are right, a weakness of myn is that i dont paint the light as you said, ill kick myself in the ass and get it sorted :D

thanks again!
