Hi guys and thanks a lot for your time! The style often changes, so can't promise anything too definite here :-)

As much as I'd love to be aggressive and tell you they suck, nope. I just can't.

These paintings are awesome, lighting, color, values, composition, even post-pro stuff like chromatic abberations and slight blurs (maybe slightly overdone - maybe). All great. Environment design - fucking sick :D

BUT. They're not rendered enough. They're very loose and look like speedpaintings rendering-wise.
Do everything as you already do but just render more. Paint more details in. That's literally all that I can critique.

As speedpaintings, they're freaking epic. Want them for a portfolio level? Render moar.
But they already look professional to me.

Wow, I could never thought I'd get that inspiring wonderful answer! Thank you a lot for your time.

Responding to that advice, I'm pushing much more rendering out of myself.

Do I need to render everything like hell, guys?

Thanks for watching!

Trying to do sweet rendering.

Should I aim to remove that untidiness?
If yes, does that mean I should work very clean from the very start?

Using a lot of masks and layers, striving for much clarity, yet am not satisified with result. Guess that can be pose not good enough and colours/lighting not vibrant enough.

Hello guys -- sorry for huge gap in posting -- I've switched to be a follower of older art, painterly feel :-) Feeling that as "a way" currently, let's see if that persists

Something more in painterly style inspired by Mullins' use of light and, after that, a quick sci-fi commission :-)
