the eyes are a little smaller and further apart, also watch out on the jaw, yours is freakishly bulging out to the side, the incline in that is tough i know, its very subtle. pay attention to the cheek bones, his are a little wider ont he side. Look at the whites of the eyes too, are yours identical?

its better for sure, you'll learn over time like how to make the eyes look subtle and relaxed/tense and stuff, but good work my dude

I like this power head dude, try playing around more with the rock formation thingies. the one on the left side is very interesting, maybe hit the opacity on different levels for a few of them, and vary their sizes even more, youre on the right track

PS, the one right before had a little more magic with the rectangular shape, and the depth created by the cloud, maybe see if you can skillfully work some of that depth back into the image ;)

also working on this cat/snake/bird monster/dragon illustration,
very frustrating, started all over again a lot, changed the color palette completely at one point.
kind of happy with this version:

im digging the snake dude, reminds me of one of Mike Azevedo's dragons, though not as cartooney; little design tip, take that arm thats floating currently, and angle it, higher up so that gives them a rythm. and the wings are in a good pose, maybe see if you can bend or twist one for a more dynamic angle.

Mike's dragons are fucking fantastic, study his shapes and caligraphy, it'll do anyone some good :) https://www.artstation.com/artwork/L20lr

I've never seen these super deatailed illustrations from mike azevedo,
don't get me wrong his new stuff is deatailed too, but it has a different style.
Very cool, thanks.
