You have learned the most critical skills, light, values, shape, texture. This is very impressive work. Some of it is difficult to make out in much detail due to file size, but I do think I may eb able to point towards some areas for improvement.
First, the face is really good. really good use of values around the mouth and nose, great drop shadow on the neck. The skull she is holding however, looks quite angular, almost carved. I might lean into this and make it more angular, or work on rounding the near the transition points. The skull looks really good thought. The area that looks like it most needs improvement are the wrists and hands. The wrists feel a little overshaded and the hands could have a bit more detail. However, the anatomy id really good across the bord with very good proportions.
Outside of subject matter, and more into the art more generally, it does look like there could be a better emphasizes on line hierarchy and line confidence. The areas that are shades and textured tool great, but areas like the shoulders or arms at times seem fuzzy. Having some confident, long, strong lines could help some of the depth and definition there. But, this is all do as I say, not as I do. The work is very good, and you should not take this as criticism. Some of the line work, too, comes down to style.
If i did go back, it might be to define some of the line hierarchy before another layer for shading.
This is work of a quality where a profession of the arts is within range. Someone did say to go digital, which is a good idea.
