  1. Cool to see more stuff from you, i guess an advice would be to desaturate some of your colours, the ones you are using now are all very saturated, especially the greens, and it makes it looks sort of glowy. try looking at your reference more (if you used one) and really try to nail the colours, even if it takes some time. im still trying to learn this, and its hard, but later on when you paint out of your imagination it helps a ton! keep going!

  3. Desaturation is indeed a great tool, however it's kind of the easy way. I deliberatly aimed at a very saturated look to practice my understanding of colors, if you desaturate your colors you don't achieve the same fundamental understanding of how the colors interact. :) (but thanks for the feedback anyhow)

    1. Not desaturate in the sense of a tool in photoshop, just do it manually, like, look at your ref, and try to nail the correct colour as it is. there are three aspects to colour. Value, Hue, Saturation, just nailing value and hue isnt enough, its a big headstart thats for sure, but the last part matters a lot as well, you should do more studies, it would really strengthen your fundamentals! :)
      And yeah sorry for the long message, and sorry for responding so late :D
