I'm seeing more variation in your faces now. I love the autumn elf concept, and I'm excited to see it finished. They're all looking lovely.
Eastern Magik
thank you darling *kiss*

Invertation
All around, a very solid piece. The fire effect especially, it definitely adds a level of realism and atmosphere.
Morag D
ooh looks wicked! I really liked how you used the fire :3 and it's great how her hair seems to be coming loose. The only thing I might point out is that the strings of pearls coming off the top look a bit stiff, if they weren't so straight they'd show the movement better. but it's a lovely piece!
Eastern Magik
@Invertation ty. yes, i painted that fire longer than everything else XD
@Morag D thank you sweetie , aahh those pearls :S.
And new wip:
Ghost of Ascalon

Tommy's
Wolla wolla, it's a male! Don't believe we've seen that before?
InfestedHydralisk
If you make these sort of males, then I approve.
Death By An Arrow
I spy with my little eye, an organism that can produce testosterone! Good to see you stepping out of your comfort zone, its looking really quite good. The anatomy looks right to me, don't know why you've avoided this gender for so long 
Charlie Dayman
If I could have any spirit animal, it would be an Ascalonian Ghost.
Looking promising so far! Love the Native American vibe he's giving off.

Magik, that's looking really good. It is great to see you going in a new direction.
Eastern Magik
@Tommy yes, its a male and no, well, not a finished one at least 
@IH *high-five*
@DBAA thanks. Actually, i have to disagree with you, for the past couple of months, i've been drawing males. I just didn't want to post any of those sketches, because most of them were done as practice and most of them aren't good XD I will most definitely finish this one and we will see how it will turn out
@Charlie ty yeah, i've been thinking about adding some feathers around his head, or maybe some chains like ghost rider one, hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, will need to think about that
@Aero thank you :3
Wip:
Still need to render his skin, and scars on his face and around his mouth. But, i can't decide on which one to continue with work DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD:
suggestions are welcome

thanks for your help guys ^_^ i went on and continued to work on the left one. Reworked his eyes, i like it better this way, and more work done on his face. Decided to cover most of his teeth, can't really see on this concept art if those are his teeth or what >_<
frostkisses
Magik! WOOOO! Girl you have an awesome ability at makin glowy...stuff! This looks sooooo neat! As with all your works this knocks my socks off, and I cant wait to see the finished version! Definately glad you went with the one on the left

Pocahontas - Colors of the Wind
Aeronwen
I love the colours in ghost, but I find his face a bit disturbing.
Pocohontas is lovely she looks so strong.

And wips (clean this time XD , well, mostly :P )
Ghost Nova:
still need to figure out what to draw for a background
And new gw2 piece:
There are a lot of anatomical mistakes i still need to fix (like casters shoulders + neck, rangers face and feet on all of them :S ) But, which ranger to pick?

I love the dynamic quality of the left spec, with the kneeling/crouching ranger.
And Pocahontas did turn out really well. You captured the facial features of the original animated character perfectly. (2D Disney animation is my wheelhouse -- I love seeing the works you come up with for those characters.)
Edit: Whoops -- posted too late.
Progress is looking great! (And actually so far divorced from your sketch that the kneeling/standing debate is kind of moot.)

Thanks love ^_^ I recently started to watch Disney movies again, i find them relaxing, songs are awesome and i adore how they are drawn ^_^, so there will be more Disney princess artwork soon
And about latest wip, im not feeling too confident in my skills right now, and im not sure if im going to pull this off the way i want
Im afraid not to over-detail it. Im going to have ele with least details , and work my way toward warrior, cuz she will be most detailed in the whole picture. Im thinking about blurring most of the guardian, except maybe his hands.
Anyway, heres new wip:

oohh, i like this one! And pocahantos turned out nice (however her name is spelt). One question;
what is the warrior (guardian? the one on the left close to us) doing with their hand? It looks like it is palm to us, and thus swatting the air. are they trying to catch the arrow?
I really like the perspective of the piece! Potential to be really great

Its Pocahontas XD , and thanks
he is doing this: http://fav.me/d1ge7c8
If i leave him on the picture, he will be casting deflection shield (if thats the name of that skill , im not sure )

okay, so it IS palm facing us. I was seeing it both ways (kind of like an optical illusion, where you see two things when its really the same thing). Gotcha.
I think deflection shield is the right name. And the progress is looking good, keep it up! I like the light coming from the elementalist; it looks just right on the other characters around her.

The Pocahontas piece came out really lovely. Nice colors and feeling to it.
This new piece is coming along nicely. The poses look good, though the one with the sword looks a bit too relaxed to me. At the moment, it doesn't really feel like there's a lot of power being put into how she's holding the sword. I think it has to do with the positioning of her arm - they seem to be out in front of her.
If you take that pose and hold your arms in that position as if to swing something heavy, it feels very weak. There's more of a twist in the shoulders and torso. I think that would help make the pose feel more dynamic. Not to mention the nice negative shapes you could make in the spaces between her arms, body, and ele (I think it's an ele) behind her.

@DBAA yes, i might redraw his hand, idk. And i will have guardian with blue-ish lights, so it will mostly be blue vs red ^_^
@Charlie thanks love (congrats on winning btw ^_^ )
hmmmmmmm, ok, i tried to twist her a little bit.
wips:
first one is done before i read Charlies post After that, i tried to move her arms a little. Can't really have any balance if her left (our right) leg is positioned like that, so i redrew it. And last wip, defined her chest and head . Also, toned down eles boobies, cuz they were glowing >:| Added bg, maybe to work a little more on depth <_<

Death By An Arrow
YESYESYESYES a thousand time yes. Me likey. It really looks like she's building up her power for a strong golf swing/upper cut slash. Really protecting her group like a warrior would.
Also, totally unrelated, but some envrionment concepts were posted on the arena.net blogfor GW2 which reminded me of that little envrionment study you did where you did 4-5 quick sketchs to try and get the overall feel. Just something that came to mind

@DBAA yeah, but those look way better :P
i still do those sort of mini paintings, when i don't have a lot of time, or don't know what to draw. Its great way to practice values.
@Charlie hmm, i tried that head on the 3rd frame, but , it was really weird, like her neck is broken or something.
And yes, she may be saying ""sup, I have a big sword." or perhaps, "Charge!!!" or "Attack!!" or "Spaaaaartaaaa!!!" or maybe even " My shoulder is going to fall offfff!!!" XD
Jokes on the side, heres a new wip:
Started to add details on warrior chick, she still needs more color on her skin, i don't want them all to look like they have fallen out of Asmodae. And her red hair will get some more adjustments, its too distracting atm.
And, i've been asked to help out a friend with a little face paint over. I was actually in the position to record the whole process, will upload video tomorrow. And finished version of my paint over in spoiler:

Why did you discard the first one? Possibly I just like any pic with a winegalss in it but she looks so relaxed.
Eastern Magik
Because she looks so relaxed, it doesn't go well with characters personality
