Long time no see, but I'm back - finally
After painting a guardian for a friend, I decided I disliked the ornaments on the shoulders and arms and thus filled them with green stuff. I changed the position of one arm and gave him a pointing finger. Now he got a part of his painting done, so I though I could show it to you.
Questions, comments and criticism is always welcome.

well the only thing I could advice is shading the golden elements bit more: some washes should work well here
besides of that I'd love to turn this jack into scrap thralls!
excellent work on these purples! wow, nice nice! but the gold looks rough and lacks depth for me.
I think Demi's suggestion is the way to go - some thin washes to add depth to the color.
Hm, maybe I should get a light box for pictures. I thought the gold was good. In nature, it is much more like the gold on the edge above his head, going from a mix of tin bitz with glorious gold all the way up to polished gold with silver.
