Hi and welcome!

I think u should do more photo studies or/and paint from life.

If ur serious about improving, itll help u alot to understand how complex stuff like light, value, edges, etc work.

Practice and draw more and upload it all but first and foremost be patient and allow urself to improve at ur pace no matter how slow it can be.

And er... it seems u posted the third image twice.

Keep at it!

:)

I really like the first image. It looks like waves enveloping a stark city. I think the contrast in color is appealing.

I really like the first and the second one. The colors and composition really work. Lovely sketchbook!

I see you're going for some vast landscapes here

remember : structure, composition, atmosphere, COLOR

all these things will help you improve, and as far as your figures go, study skeletal architecture, its is key for getting your figure down correctly

best of luck

the girl from post 5 shows that you have practice in structure.

maybe start the landscapes and paintings with small pencil thumbnails, where you define the composition and proportions and where the light is coming from.
I'd suggest that you do a few still lifes from life first. Just put an apple or something on your desk and paint it in Photoshop, then do a few self portraits. All that to get practise in digital painting. Its easier to start simple!! First know how to paint an apple, then know how to paint industrial landscapes ;-)

Also get reference for environments. See my signature for two zip-sets full of free hires cc-licensed images ;-).

If you have a few dollars to spend, buy Mr. Blonde's Snow Landscape Digital Download from this Site. It's the best landscape tutorial i've seen. Contains some nice brushes, too.

But to get back to my point, yeah really start simple and black/white! And most important keep working!

cheers
