Getting into digital painting!
ngon master
Before I started 3D-moddeling, I drew. A lot. I've never really got into digital painting, so I feel like it's about time. I'll use this thread to showcase my progress!
C&C is very welcomed!

You might want to spend some more time with a larger brush to get the 'textiles' to feel smoother
I can see you spent a while on the details of the robot. However, you've lost the bigger volumes and now, there's no way to tell which way the light is coming from.
As for the second drawing, maybe some anatomy references could help. More specifically, the wrist, forearm and torso (his shoulders look completely horizontal. I'm not sure that actually happens in people...) The way the vest falls on the chest makes it look flat, as opposed to having demon-baby-saving muscles. Come to think of it, the legs could do with a bit of anatomying (that's not a word) as well.
The placement of the sword is unfortunate: the blade aligns with the hem of the boot, which makes the viewer's brain go circus-kiwi. You don't want this.
Similarily, the handle (I'll assume it's the handle) meets the exact edge of the jacket and overlays weirdly with the baby-holding hand. Again, brain stuff happening.
Overall, nothing that can't be solved with some solid foundations: anatomy, composition, lighting.
Cheers!
