You are improving so much with each new piece, it's really inspirational to see!! My only suggestion is I feel like alot of your poses are kind of.. staring forward with legs forward, basically floating or standing. You should try for more dynamic pieces! Maybe have one of her legs going back and one folded and going forward with the shield up? I am not sure how much you can change the current sketch right now.
Hi! Thank you so much for the feedback! Now that you mentioned this I do see the same pose in all of my drawings. :c The previous drawing I posted I wasn't happy with to I scraped it and started a new one which I also don't like , so I started a new one , Idk where I'm going it with it, maybe Sailor Moon, maybe something else but guess what ..same pose fml ... buuut I do quite like how it's turning out so I'm gonna keep it this time, but I'll try to be more diverse in the future! 
I really like that Sailor Moon Piece!!
Keep it up really like the painterly stuff i think you just need to polish a bit more to level up on your work other than that stuff looks great im really digging the colors too XD
BW sketch so far , don't mind the wings, I just have no idea what I'm doing with them 
And I just realized her ears are way down the moment I posted it. Great..
I have NO idea if you are looking for critiques or suggestions, so I don't want to over-step my bounds. But I wanted to see if I could "push" the pose? I don't know what you could do right now, since your sketch is pretty refined (( and gorgeous)) the only critique I have for the pose-as-is is i feel like the arms are kinda short? But it could just be the perspective needing more values around the elbow. You are a really amazing artist so I wanted to see if I could help at with your improvent.
* totally just used your sketch as a base by the way, you have pretty good anatomy!
Goddammit yours looks so cool, fml , I'll probably take a note for the wings and the arms,because (honestly i'm too lazy to change up the whole drawing ) For the arms I did try to foreshorten them but I do see now that they just look ..short now. Man I want your critiques all the time, please !!! Thank you soo much ^w^
!! I am so happy it's helpful! I can tell you were going for them extending towards the viewer, but I think you need to darken the values around the bend more and straighten out the lower arm some! the right hand looks pretty spot on for fore-shorterning around the wrist area though.
Finished Sailor Moon , I gotta do some environment practice cuz I suck at it

This one kinda took a different direction I feel like, I'm not really satisfied with the result, it feels dull, unfinished and like it's missing something, but I'm pretty much at a dead end so I'll call it finish and let it be as it is. PS HAPPY NEW YEAR YAY

Something in between the art challenge. Drawing mermaids is soo relaxing~~
Hey Castonia! Great stuff I see you submitting, its very adventurous! I've noticed that your works are looking great conceptually, but lack a bit of color execution, especially with your value range. Below I've greyscaled some of your work and then added some contrast filtering to show more what I mean.
To solve it you could really experiment with what makes you most comfortable. Greyscaling a painting first is a good route for learning and more solid assurance it will turn out great; but you could also do some in depth color studies.
Hope this helps! I love your mermaids and hope to see more 
Thank you so much for the feedback, I just how bad my values are ( I knew before, but I actually saw just now). So I decided to take a step back and always start with greyscale .
This is the new thing I'm experimenting with. I was looking at some league of legends art and I saw the image in grey scale and it just blew my mind, so I'll be trying to work very detailed in greyscale 1st before going to color. But my problem with color is that I make it very muddy(mostly from color picking too much) and the other problem is that it just looks like I'm coloring a coloring book and I'm watching some utube videos to get some color knowledge but it's not going too well Any tips ?
PS. Sorry for the overwhelming comment >.<
here's the image
