Gliger - Judging from your influence map our interests totally don't overlap so it would be hard to write something meaningful. All those mangas and artists are completely foreign to me maybe except for Katsuya Terada.
Are you planning to make something suited for animated tv show or comic book? Looks like it would be perfect for those types of mediums.
Regarding first character sketches. Really imaginative but simple designs. I wonder how are things going between humans and cyclops and the third unnamed race? Are they living together in piece or are they hostile. Some basic info would be good :).
EduardoGaray - X-com series is being one of my favourite classics. I wish there were more turn based games like it made nowdays. Have you tried Silent Storm games? It's WWII with some sci-fi elements but gameplay is fun. All terrain is destructible like in the X-com games. It has few things which are unbalanced but still woth a try.
Texhnolyze was amazing though it was probably the most depressing anime I've ever seen. I liked how there was drastic difference between Lux city and the surface while they still they both were very dystopian.
Gareth Dent - Good idea with the mind map. I'm planning to use that too in my worldbuilding process. The crucial next step would be giving hierarchy to what things you want to portray from that map. Too much ideas at once can make it difficult to start. Maybe some main story elements with the main character?
Punk-A-Cat - Nice designs. I think you could improve the contrast of those scans a little bit by playing with levels (assuming you use Photoshop or Gimp).
appleseed00 - That would be perfect for some RTS game. Is it going to be entirely about global militaristic side of IMC and The Terran Empire or there is some story of single individuals behind the scene?
Tristan Berndt - Yes. It's definitely good to keep things organic in the beginning beacause later some ideas might not work together.
If you design one location then it would be interesting to know how it sits in greater scheme of things. I mean how people from surroulding lands treat this place. Is it completely avoided or maybe some heroes have some reason to go there? How much is known about the dangers of the forest?

Lately I tried sketching some random characters/creatures that could be anything really. The main goal was getting the feel for slightly postapocalyptic look I'm trying to achieve. Something that came unexpected from doodling was a really nasty looking dolphin with huge jaws. I might explore that direction later.
