nicely done. one color you have to add to your arsenal is wicked detail sepia. it's a great toner for all colors and gives a different effect with every color you use it with. especially with the yellows, tans, golds, white, orange craw without the detail sepia same colors as the first one but with detail sepia to tone everything down crackle finish. this looks really cool but is an absolute bitch to do antique parchment with detail sepia for depth on the clear head and along the back

That's an EXCELLENT first try ! I'd like to see more contrast in the shell, personally ...just stronger outlines. But that's just my personal taste. I think Basscat Dad gave some great advice and ideas. Anyway, great job ...I'm looking forward to seeing your future work !
