I would put your drawing on a white background and try to match the angle of their reference image and start looking at details. I did see a lot things that are a little different than the reference image. Your drawing is good but I do not think they are looking for good, I think they are looking at can you match details,…
Do some research on drawing clothing, especially line drawing -- that's where you'll find the most information about how cloth folds happen and how to represent them realistically. Once you've got that, applying the theory to a mesh would be much easier.
alexd thank you! Here is something to completely terrify you! MY BEAUTIFUL DRAWING SKILLS!!1 Are you still there? well, you are the tough one! As you can see I draw the concept and started sketching helmet inside zbrush. thanks!
Today started a project, but the morning kicked off with some posing and gesture drawing. Tried digital drawing at least to start getting used to it and it took forever to get a bad result so, I'll have to restructure my approach. https://imgur.com/kuAPeLU

Line Drawings FTW! I hate when i get a concept of a bunch of brush strokes it doesn't help. also hearing that some concept artist's refuse to do line drawings because they think its not and epic mood painting piece ugh
I agree with Rhinokey and etb342. Many of your drawings seem a bit stiff, but with some reference usage and possibly going to some life drawing workshops (if they're available to you) it will help you immensely. It never hurts to go back to basic sometimes =]
For learning purposes surely doing fan art is great. I view this like learning to draw: At the beginning it is certainly easier to draw from reference. Try to get close to what you see and eventually see more. Once you reached a certain level it will become easier to create and not just copy. Learning to use reference by…
I've put together a concept drawing of my throne room as I am envisioning it so far. I made a little blockout in Sketchup to draw over. I'm still working on the concept as I go, but any feedback on the design thus far would be much appreciated!
For face studies, you should focus on drawing from life. Gather some photos of people (friends are fun to do) and do portraits. You'll expand your visual library this way. If you wanna get more in-depth of structure drawing some skulls is a good idea.
