And my gods you have improved by bounds since last I saw your work! I'm at home and as such can't load all your images but I'll comment on the first one at least.
Its amazing, the detail in the background. I keep thinking the sky was done separately because the moon/sun looks like it goes out of the page, and its so crisp.
What I'd like to point out is her waist or hip. If you lie down in that pose, you'll notice that the dip is where your elbow is. In her case, its after which makes the torso longer than it should be. If you move it up, she won't look as stretched out.
Another thing throwing me off is her neck. At the moment it looks like her head is lifted off the ground, and I know you fix it by doing something with the perspective oh her arm that's on the ground but for the life of me I can't explain it XD I'm sorry~!

XDD *huggles back*
Gracias, chibi. ^^
*is extremely flattered by your awesome compliments* ;_;
And, thank you very much for pointing out the thing with her waist/hip. I was wondering why she seemed so stretched. Must be rather uncomfortable for her. X:
And, hahaha. I actually did the neck thing on purpose, though I do get the perspective part of what you're saying.
Do you know Botticelli's Birth of Venus?
It's a beautiful painting, but a lot of her proportions are off, and I think that adds to its charm. Which is why I did the thing with the neck. Botticelli's birth of venus has a similar weirdness to the neck.
My only problem was completely messing up in the perspective point of view. My flaw was in not considering that since his was standing up, it doesn't appear like it's holding up the body...
anyway, I'll stop ranting and say, thankyouthankyouthankyou.
I absolutely love your advice.
