Been checking out what I missed, and it looks great! You've improved quite nicely, but if you don't mind any criticism on that yamame surprise picture:
The sleeves are a bit off. making them conform to the shape of the arm or puffing it out for ambiguity would make it look much better. Instead of straight lines from the shoulder to the rest of the sleeve, putting in some inconsistency would make it look more realistic, too. Something like this might help (sorry for my kinda-bad edit) (http://img716.imageshack.us/i/patorikkuyamameedit.png/)
Keep up the good work! :)

I don't mind critiques at all. Personally, I wouldn't mind a couple more popping up every so often! Yours definitely helps, since I don't draw outstretched arms nearly enough. Much appreciated~!
Also, the work on Ramona/the angel is actually a little old. Pre-Christmas old, in fact. I know it may make me look like a lazy ass, but I think she was one of the few works I went 100% effort on, because I loved the design I made for her. Works like, say, the hug and kiss one from a week ago, were more for fun, and works like the little near-death kiss from the beginning of December were more about the concept. No less, I make sure that serious works like that get a minimum of 85% effort. Art is one of the few things I excel at AND can use as a future job, so I have to push myself to work at least above average.
Oh snap, suddenly journal entry-sized post.
