Thanks both of you very much!

@Shadow: Yeah, I see the problem with the breast line now. Though, I believe the chin looks fine.

@Demon: Yes, I need to be more confident in my shading!

Tried to used a wideer range of colors in my shading, but when I saved it from the GB, the colors blended together:

Not my character design. The hood is gosh awful and the hand looks shaky.

For the hoody I would just use less clothing folds, for the cartoony style you were using the more folds added appears to make it more messy, what I notice artists do and something im trying to get used to is to indicate clothing folds using shading rather than using distinct black lines, I would recommend investing some time in that area, I bet that would help! again I think you could be a bit more confident with your skin shading, but I think you will have that in mind for your next sketch

[JJJorgie]

Thanks! Next time I'll take it slower and try to paint the folds. Also, I had used darker shading, but when transferring it, the colors got really messed up.

My scanner decided to work, so here are some traditional, pencil sketches:

SPOILER! :

And then, here's some coloring practice (nudity):

SPOILER! :

First time coloring a face without lines

BUNNIES!
draw more of those! lolz. we can have a bunny marathon!

The coloring practice looks really great. its good to see that you're fearless in exploring how to do skin. The skin you made looks healthy.

[JJJorgie]

Haha, thanks! I'm glad the skin looks good!

I'll try drawing more bunnies, but no guarantee on how good they look

Here's an update on one of the painting practices. I redid the face:

Looking good on the newest piece. The only issue that really sticks out to me is her massive forehead. It looks like she's shaved her scalp. :X The face is looking nice though.

[JJJorgie]

Thanks a lot! Yeah, the forehead is massive, I think my reference has a receding hairline, because that's how big it is in the photo :/ I'll shorten it up, though!

[Gedeon]

Jorjy you got some good stuff. I haven't seen your thread for some time...and you've made quite a progress. The new paintings look awesome. No real crits..sorry.

[JJJorgie]

Thanks so much Gedeon! I really appreciate your comments

[JJJorgie]

I'm sorry; I was being lazy and didn't use references on this pose, so I can't guarantee it's accurateness.

I think my only problems with it is the shape of the face is a litte weird and the arms don't have the best shape to them.
