    Great work, keep it up your learning a lot from this type of research. As you are finding out its really important to understand the anatomy, whats happening under the skin when trying to represent a figure. Also observing how light and shadows fall on the figure or any object is really important to help suggest form and position.

The things I think I can improve on are my blending of color and tone, picking the color that matches the image or object that I'm drawing from the color pallet and my understanding of using the tools available on the drawing software.
