Elemento your works are really nice, with good variety of subjects. I re-upped your attachments with the manager so that it would be easier for everyone to check 'em out.
You have a lot going for you imo, in terms of spreading your interests around, and looking to achieve a consistent amount of quality. It's natural if you come from doing a good amount of pencil/linework, but careful about becoming too involved with fleshing out every inch of an image with details if it's not necessary, (guilty as charged here lol) as opposed to simply pushing visual "focus" onto your important subject/s.

Want to mention that I think your "Invaders" illustration is really nice and crisp, and the cast-lighting from below really adds a nice depth to the graphic-design of those ships. Please keep posting!

hey elemento! you've got some nice works going on here so far!
i really like the invaders concept, haha and how you used that brush for the ground..^^
also the going home piece, ubt maybe you want to check your values again on that, a lightly dusty haze towards the background would add so much more depth to it..
keep them coming! :>

F22 piece: paintovers are a great way to learn form and construction and can be a valuable learning tool, just watch your perspective though mate, the tail vapours and the radial blur you added arent in the same perspective plane. Its always better to try and paint the blur rather than rely on the filter tools.

Here's a quick paintover to show how your perspective planes are slightly off mate, also pay attention to your light source, the shadows on the 2 F22's will be different (as demonstrated)
