I want to really nail digital painting, but I'm floundering at the moment

I know some things I'm doing are working, and I know for certain that others are not, but the problem is I don't actually know what's what. I'd like to know the things that I'm doing that are good habits even if they have room to develop, and bad habits I'm picking up/things that really ought to be improved upon.

I think there is a strong sense of style and design language which I really like. With 1 and 3 the issues are lack of contrast. It reads like a more flat comic style with the lineart turned off. This is definitely something that can work like in Disney's sleeping beauty but it definitely will always read more flat, especially if you don't have a proper background. It does seem like you are stepping in the direction of treating it as more 3D so just make sure you're applying light more consistently

What are some good examples of artists who apply light really consistently? I want to grow my visual base to that sort of thing.

I like the drawings and I am not sure what you are aiming for, where you see the main points you want to improve on. Could you specify the areas you are not happy with, where you want advise? Do you have something specific you want to learn about digital drawing? What are the bad habits you mentioned? To me the drawings look like they were planned to be :)

Well, mostly I'm worried that my colors might be muddy or my tones might not be as poppy as they could be; also I'm worried that the introduction of line cheapens the point of the piece having values.
