Hey Henrik!
Nice hybrids you got there, I particularly like the panda one, if I were you though I'd tone down that background a little bit. It's very bright now! And it feels like it's disturbing the details a bit and the highlights float in with it.
Do you usually paint over black and white sketches? Because your colors are cold and going towards the desaturated direction! You could probably do some color-only sketches and play around with that. I feel that it usually helps me atleast. I guess an example would be some of your selfportraits where the background share the same colortemperature as you! That one with the orange background is dominating over you. So a tip would be to tone down that hue so that your face appears to be more warm.
But I think it's good to see that you're doing diffrent expression in your portraits. I hardly ever do that damnit!
