Thank you! I guess so, but i find that when i make a mess without a plan in the beginning it's often faster to just start over, as i tend to just keep noodling, hehe. It was not a long sletch timewise.

The sense of depth and how the towering mountain is sort of going away from us with the center repeating "pattern" is quite convincing, so well done. In the foreground I think you could push it somehow with making that top plane in perspective read a bit better. Is that horse rider closest to us, or are those pink/peach colored squiggles closer to the left closer to us? I'm just trying to understand the plane in perspective, I hope what I'm trying to communicate makes sense. Let me know if it doesn't!
Keep doing them, great use of color! Do moar moar moar!
I know exactly what you mean. I think i'll actually try to make a new one, gonna do some studys first this time, with focus on edges and values, and spend a little time on some thumbs and construction first.
I have also started a "character a day" challenge for 30 days, i'm currently on day 4. The rules are 30mins of study/warmup/reference gathering, and then at least 1 hour of drawing, or as long as i feel like beyond that. I think consistency is a thing i really need to work on, fells like it's helping already.
The character sketch must be my own design, but i can use references for things like a certain body part if i struggle or just for inspiration, but no direct copying, and the main design/pose must be from imagination, perhaps loosely based on the studies i did beforehand implementing what i have learned. The first couple of sketches came out really crappy and unfinished, lol, as i used lineart, 1 hour is not enough as i started making it to tight (to my abilities at least), so i'll try to be more loose. It will probably be better after a week or so. I'll try to post something later tonight.
