added comment inLearning perspective: table with vase
Looks like you have the right idea. Your vanishing points seem too close together which is causing distortion, but this is a good way to practice perspective.

Thanks, I'll try to make them more separate.

You just need to do a lot of different experiments trying different styles until you start to find what fits you the best. Though I believe I have found the style that works best for me, I still do some experiments trying new things. It takes time, but that is the only way to really find your style.

I understood, but this is something I have already done (and still do today...).
The only thing I might want to keep off my original design is the eyes.
I don't know if what I'm going to say is true, but I'm afraid that the more I design my old style, the more in the comfort zone I'll be...
Here are photos of my WIP and finished digital figure painting done in Photoshop.

Nice work! I think his right side of the face seems flat, so that eye just seems to be floating on the surface rather than pushed into the skull. I would think some darker shadow above the eye may help resolve that... not sure.
