5-spread compilation of my rescue helicopter sequence line art thing

Hey guys I finally finished the 5th spread of this project, which concludes the planned sequence and I find myself more comfortable doing shading like this.
I'm still not very comfortable with drawing human and clothes, especially regarding pose and folds. I think I should do some silhouette practice to get more comfortable with how a human look like when doing various stuff. As for clothes and folds, I'm not quite sure what will look better. I tried actually mapping out all the shadow area shapes and shade them accordingly but that looks pretty stiff, so I may need to look at more artist on how they do clothes.
Otherwise I'm doing okay... Composition/value distribution wise, you can probably spot I'm lazy at some places and some shapes got muddled, but overall they turned out better than I expected.
Please give some thoughts on these, and I do recommend people who is interested in drawing to do some more "lengthy" stuff than quick practices, I think I benefited a lot from doing this :D
(I don't think I can re-order the image list...)

This helicopter looks beautiful, may I ask where did you learn to draw perspective in such a clean yet complicated fashion?

Hi! Thanks sonami! Because perspective is rather mathematical, so if you plot right you will get a nice result. Some exaggeration will also help depending on what kind of thing you would like to express. Because a lot of times, perspective lines have a very narrow angle with each other, you can see sometimes I exaggerated some bits so it looks right in that direction, but also more expressive than plotting out mechanically.
