Loving the shadow shapes and forms of the asian man's face and the women in post 1,897 (I think it was that number). Your figure forms are really reading well lately, especially the women at the bottom of the post I mentioned. Perspective always sucks, period... Somebody mentioned this in somebody else's post, but this book https://archive.org/details/cu31924020581041/page/n17 is helping me understand it more. I also have been drawing vanishing points and perspective lines over an image before I draw it, and then drawing it in that same perspective, which helps with relating your stuff to actual perspective. The Raven drawing's looking good also- I had a crush on her growing up and I can say the face feels like her, she was never very feminine so don't worry too much about that.
Great improvements, I'm very inspired at seeing how your work has jumped over the past couple of weeks. Looking forward to your Cyborg drawing!

1. Use the biggest brush possible for a given passage.
2. Paint large shapes first, followed by small shapes.
3. Save your tonal and chromatic accents until the last.
4. Try to soften any edge that doesn’t need to be sharp.
5. Take time to get the center of interest right.
Or, the briefer version: (B.L.A.S.T.)
Big brushes.
Large to small.
Accents last.
Soften edges.
Take your time.
