Aye kv, really convincing metal studies you got going on there. Maybe you could write up a little description for your characters in the corner somewhere. Details about their personality or values, how you intended the viewer to feel while looking at the painting, etc. and see if other people are getting the same vibes.
For instance: "heroic, battleworn knight wields her greatsword proudly after a hard fought war". In this case, does her armor reflect damage being taken? Does her stance support her valiant effort, or is she just casually doing...something? Fedo's got a point about the cool-standing-pose thing. I'm not completely sure what kind of attitude she's giving off, but jotting down a quick note might help reinforce the main idea as you work through it.
