Hey, thanks for stopping by, you're work has a nice sense of lighting and some cool vision; i think you need to be cautious about using a small brush everywhere in the image, don't be afraid to leave large brush marks in places away from the focal point.
otherwise there are a few perspective errors in your work, it might be worth spending some time reading up on the basics; scott robertson's gnomon dvd is great if you can afford it!
lastly, your colours seem to be a bit monotone and washed out, i would recommend doing some master studies and still life's to help get away from this.
nice stuff though, keep it up! :)

finally i had some time to post here, as i said earlier to you, i really like your lovecraft stuff.
At this point, my only advice would be to keep practicing hard, work on values, edges, the usual stuff. Also, those last studies are good, you are on the right track. :P

Get this updated!

The painting for the dragon challenge is beautiful! He fits perfectly in the environment, color- and texture wise. Maybe you could have added a bit more atmospheric perspective to the mountains behind him, to give everything a bigger scale.

I'm looking forward to seeing more of your art! :)

The bloodsport 15 entry is really cool. I love the colors, the blue and green work very well together. It's good you finished it despite the deadline already being over :)

Thanks so much Lyraina, yeah I had hard time with the colors but finally it came out pretty well, still I have tons of things to learn but felt good to finish this.
