OP, you're a beginner. Drop the ego.

You've shown no finished pieces, your linework is very poor, as is your ability to render properly. I can't speak for your understanding of lighting. Your anatomy needs work. Your style needs development. Etc...

You've got a long way to go kid. I'm assuming what you've shown is the best of the best of your work. Like I said, starting out, your strengths all really shine, and you hide your weaknesses under a rug. But none of what you've shown is exceptionally stellar or stand out desu. I made pic related as a beginner. While a great piece, it's not hard to attain seeing as I'm copying a photograph, moreover, consistency is king, and this is something you start to attain once you reach intermediate and have a keener eye for self critique. There is a serious lack of consistency in what you've shown us OP, moreover, your blindness to your own weaknesses is very typical of a beginner.

Like I said, you've got ways to go. Don't let any of this get you down, but also, don't let your inflated ego get the better of you. For example, there are plenty of artists on here who I greatly admire that totally shit on my work with the kind of stuff they put out.

Just keep working hard, and keep an open mind to advice. All talent means is you learn faster. If you don't put in the work, the people lacking talent who are working hard WILL surpass you.

I say it needs more contrast. And two, don't add value with similar tones.

On the contrast though, try working in grayscale for a bit, it'll help you. Make sure you go dark thougj, like REALLY dark. Pic related.
