    these are good, the forms are nice and clear. personally what helps me add more character to my studies as well as learn more from them is by trying to create an exaggerated verion of my refference, as this pushes me to think about how the forms interlock and what ways to construct them are the most efficient.

    also, observation is key, an exercise i like to do is turn off all the lights around me and try to do studies without looking at what im drawing (only my refference), cause what it does is put you into a more intense observation mode while still keeping your hand active. when you aren't thinking about what your drawing is supposed to look like, you are more focused on understanding and learning the forms of what's in front of you.

    hope this helps :]

    I feel that the shading on the back and underneath the jaw is a bit off.. i feel like if you replaced that yellowey-brownish backlight color with something a bit lighter, it would read better. also think if you added more contrasting shadows to more areas of the body, it would balance out the intensity of the back and jaw shadows. the overall shapes of the body are done well.

    thats a really frustrating feeling and ive definitely had that.

    here's some things that helped me when i was in a similar situation.

    these drawing excersizes really helped me personally with like, feeling my brain juices flow more smoothly if that makes any sense. just doing stuff like drawing random 3d shapes and curly lines kinda helps with creating muscle memory with a better flow. it seems small but it personally helps me a lot whenever im in a huge creative block.

    what also helps me is pondering why i do what i do, and the messages i want to get across to the audience with my work. really thinking about what got you started in the first place can help re-light the fire that drives your work.

    another thing that helps is just taking time to observe and study the work of your favourite artists and what it is you like about their work. studying how different artists do things can help you improve your own methods. be sure to study more than one though, so you don't wind up accidentally absorbing too much of one style.

    when it comes to posting things online, be careful to not fall into the trap of basing your work's value off of how much attention it gets. sometime social media algorithms just randomly decide to not show your work, so less people may wind up seeing it. it's no big dal really, and the attention your work deserves will come to you when the time is right. don't worry too much about it. when you post something, dont worry too much about what anyone will think. what you think of it is most important.

    here's a few more vieos that helped me personally, and might help you too.

    and my final bit of advice... play around with weird shapes! try drawing globs of color and trying to turn it into a creature. try drawing things you arent very familiar with. you dont have to do a great job, just mess around and see what happens. you gotta expiriment to keep your brain creature wild and curious and ready to take in more information. just go freaken nuts!

    hope this helps. :)
