For your poster, i feel like the girl on the right and the girl in the center had the best reference for them, as they are quite lifelike and accurate. However, the girl on the right's head is very large to her body, and the girl in the middle has tiny hands and she just feels very small on the image.
The male face on the left, it doesnt look very realistic, it seems invented perhaps? I mean his face isnt technically wrong, but he doesnt feel... like any sort of character, like his proportions are generic they dont strike me as handsome or evil, or any other character trait; If there were a reference, id be interested in who the actor was
The "logan" doesnt feel like logan to me, he is way less handsome, being that he has a soft jawline, the sides of his skull do not contour in that sexy, manly hugh jackman way. You drew his jaw as if it were facing completely forward, when in perspective a head tilting down would narrow the jaw instead of widening, same with his nose, it doesnt feel like its tilting forward.
The figures in the back are goofy, like the blonde character, has a really fatty face that is not attractive or appealing, and feels invented and generic. The blue dude's bicep is very short, and his pose feels awkward and the figure with white hair has a few face issues. His head, from his nose, appears to be tilting up but his forehead is not foreshortened to accomdate that. Also the logan's hands are weird, as one thumb is visible in resting position, and the other isnt. Though thats technically possible, i think itd look better to show both as having the fullness of the opponens policis poking out the side
There is an issue with the value range in both the images, so for the wolverine one, the values are mid to high, with some blacks but nowhere near enough to balance it. The rendering on the faces shows very little attention to shadows or hard forms, everythings airbrushed rendered, with very similar colors and the lack of hard shadow play really keeps the image from popping. Drew struzan, the master of these kinds of pictures, always use a super strong set up of chiaroscuro in his images which adds a lot of drama.
For the album cover, the face and figure have a lot of personality, but from far away its really hard to tell what the image is. Like all the values are 40% dark, 50% midtone and 10% high value. I cant really tell there is a figure in the image if i back all the way up, the only silhouette i can read are the birds because only they have enough contrast to seperate from the other elements in the image. You almost have a strong gesture on the figure, but the line of action is broken by his arm angling as it is instead of going straight up to continue the curve.
And his thighs, whew, considering where it inserts, would he have room for a penis?
