Hi proko! I've been having an existential crisis that can only be resolved by LearningTM! I've been trying to make progress, but having a schedule of four completed pieces a day for like a week is really butting into my practice time. But I managed to make some time today to draw a power metal thing based on a species my friend has. I think the values could be a lot more exaggerated (this is power metal we're talking about, after all), and the background is a little sketchy. I think a big issue, for me, is adding detail. Making so many pieces on such a time crunch means that, most of the time, detail isn't really an option like it is in professional studios (presumably) I think the colors also don't have that certain *pizazz* that you get with professional art. I'm almost certain it's due to my lack of plein air study, but getting started on plein air study can be expensive. Also, the title isn't really legible. Is there any way I could improve these problems in future works? Does this work as a portfolio piece? What would you recommend I study next, based on this?
