Hey ! Thanks for stopping by my sketchbook. Nice start here.
Something to remember when painting forms and textures. Our eyes can hardly see textures in the shadow. In fact texture is mostly found right before you lose the light (terminator) because of it being at the right angle of hitting those bumps. Best to imagine a tree trunk, as the form turns away from the light our eyes can't see much texture.
By the way, are you painting with a 300 dpi canvas? The first images are really struggling to hold pixels, try to work with bigger canvases if you can.
