Finalized the Zuko portrait by adding in some more minor detail and highlights. Looking at it again 3 days later I'm thinking I probably could've nudged the values and contrast a little bit further.

Some not so quick attempts at thumbnail studies referenced and inspired from scenes in "Sword of the Stranger"

Still clueless on how to get the most out of thumbnail studies. Right now it's being torn between composition, values, scale of elements involved, perspective, and separation of elements (fore, mid, back).... yeah it's a mess. Any suggestions on how to tackle this better and how to slowly bring all those together would be greatly appreciated.
