Really nice sketchbook here Janet :).
I love your armour studies and your figure sketches look great.
Studying the skeleton is great for when you get around to studying the muscles and how they hang off the bones. A great exercise I sometimes do is to take a photo of a figure and see if I can sketch in where I think the bones are - I make sure I have an anatomy book with me though since my knowledge usually runs out pretty quick. Maybe give that a try next time you get around to studying anatomy?
How do you do your silhouettes by the way - do you sketch in a figure and then just block it in with black paint? Or do you just go straight to blocking in?
Keep up the hard work anyway :).
