Your practice hands seems good, btw. Not very rubbery. (But, I haven't seen any fully rendered.) I feel the black woman you did recently a more successful attempt that the black man, that I know you expressed yourself. Crosshatching seems better with every post, I especially love how you constructed the planes her dark skin. I googled Arinze Stanley, I don't quite have the knowledge to comprehensively discuss values, but I think I can understand what you mean.
'And yes, I'm aware the first ones are terrible. Outline exploration always look the worst because it has zero line rhythm and little proportion as well, yet I'm finding it a vital step in growing my visual library.' Fantastic. I know it's disconcerting to know when you are a beginner again in a certain area and where it doesn't look successful, but it's only a step towards that.
Nice to see you studying arms I need to have dedicated study on that and legs. I think the hardest part for me is not just perspective, but when the arms connect to the ribcage and shoulder clavicles and /how/.
