Judson,

Sharon is right - you don't even have the basics. As much as it may sting - you need to study more, lots more. You continue to post work here from the same poor references. You claim to be excellent, yet you are not. Everyone keeps giving you good advice and you keep ignoring it. This forum has some wonderful professionals who give their time freely to help. You do not think you need help obviously. I am not trying to be rude, but when you keep asking for advice and not taking it from folks who are so much more qualified than you... pretty soon they are not going to give you any. And that would be a shame since there is so much knowledge here and you so desperatly need it. I think Sharon had a great point - work on the basics for a long time - years. Then come back when you want to actually learn something.

Sharon is right. Your drawing is weak, (particularly the second example above) proportionally and in execution.
