Criticism on my Art Please

I know there are some really good artists on basilmarket and would appreciate their advice or any1 else's too actually. I want to improve and it's easier when some1 else points the mistakes out for you. It could be anything from painting techniques, colours,perspective or even something that just doesnt seem right to you. "Lost in Ruins" is my most recent one so i'd rather you criticize that and you can also see the WIP for it that's on my deviantart.

Sry, i couldn't link right to the art. Just go to "browse" in my gallery for the WIP

In some cases the way the shading is done makes round objects no longer look round.
The shading also looks a tad messy.

Thanks for all the input,
So, to sum it up for my benefit what i need to work on are small details, shadows, lighting consistency, colours, depth and meaning.

I agree that they lack depth. Try adding more contrast between the objects.
I like the art, but the details seem a little inconsistent (try to keep the level of detail constant for the whole piece unless you make it an obvious distinction; such as putting a 3D figure over a 2D background).

@Zorqy: I think you are really talented and you should just work on colours and make it more artistic like add more small details to your drawings

I would say try using different techniques/ styles. It should be able to diversify your art ability. Other than that, keep it up ^^

[quote=EirShinoir]Some areas are a little flat and lacking depth. Also work on light and shadow to make a more believable space make sure the shadows correspond to where the light is coming from. That's all I can think of immediately, but great work, love your style [/quote]

Thanks, i just noticed i forgot most of the shadows (like always)

I'm not trying to be mean to the OP, but you've got to be joking. EVERYONE should want to improve. NEVER ASSUME YOU'RE GOOD ENOUGH TO STICK WHERE YOU'RE AT, NOBODY IS.

OT: Your lighting needs to be more consistent I think. Well done shadows can really make your art...er... pop.
