Example: last image above, the whole arm is almost completely flat, yet her nose has value and 3d form but the rest of her face doesn't. These could be stylistic choices but at the moment you are mixing both together somewhat unsuccessfully. Not sure if it's laziness or a conscious attempt at trying to mix the two.

I'd suggest doing more full value "3D" photoreal studies and more 2d stylistic studies and then you may be in a better position to be able to gauge how to combine these a little better.
Hope that helps :)

...Forgot to mention, you tend to use almost no highlights at all, which to me make most of your images seem a little unfinished. A small highlight goes a long way :D

Thanks for the feedback! It was not a stylistic choice, nor was it laziness, it was plain ignorance and I didn't realize it, but now I totally see it, thanks! I am doing studies, I just need to keep doing more I guess XD The lack of highlights was a stylistic choice, but I guess I might be going overboard with it. I just like the opaque look.
