Hi Crackedskull! I just want to say that the ammount of work you do is awesome! There is just one thing that stands out about your stuff to me, that it lacks structure.
Say in the last couple of studies when you paint. You put the color down with lots of texture. The problem is that it tends to get really muddy and unfocused. If you take some time to see what directions the planes of what ever you are painting/drawing are going, then try to define these planes.
For example: Paint with the direction of the plane with your strokes. Be it paint or hactching with pencil. I painted over one of your last studies, but it applys to everything.
And dont be afraid to spend some time on a study. Quality is more important than drawing fast, just to get lots of stuff out ;)

I would suggest that you take some time and draw some 3d objects frome life. Say some simple objects. A box, or a roll of toilet paper and try to simplify the shapes and their directions(without texture), then move on to more complex shapes etc..
If you get your structure in place, you could put down as much texture as you want and it will still read. So maybe tone down on the textures a bit for a while? :)
I hope some of this helps! Anyways keep up with the awesome workload! Looking forward to see what you come up with :)
