Darius’s sketchbook

On the one with the axe - the best imo - you've played a lot with edge softness. Try to increase the range of edge qualities you have even more by throwing back in some crisp edges in key areas. A sharp axe is more menacing. A clearly firm grip is more ready for whatever is coming. An unshifting and unblinking gaze makes the man appear more ready to pounce. A sharper demarcation between the top of the wolf's head and the background helps separate the planes even more.

Once you've tried all that, ask yourself "which is the sharpest edge on this area of an object? Surely one area has to be slightly sharper than the others?"

Anyway, looking good and good luck! I'm new here as well ^^
