/ic/ - Artwork/Critique

Ah fuck it I need feedback, this is the last thing I put significant time and effort into. My values are muddled, the form and gesture boring and I dont get on with the 'clean line then flat colour' method too well, but making it painterly and trying to cut the shapes and silhouette ends up even more muddled and vague. I like the thumbnail sketches and value roughs you did for your redlines, do you have any tips for efficient workflow?
Thanks for all the advice you've given so far.
