Bah... nothing was coming out right today... here is one of my attempts anyways...
I messed up on a few things. I'll just have to remember those for next time. :|
I have a hard time just sitting down and start drawing, so I figured doing something is better than nothing. I came across this really nice thread on Conceptart.org:

They had many good personal projects to do. I went ahead and took a stab at the first project, so here it is...
My first one (1) was really horrifying. Keep in mind I have never painted in real life, so my choices are not the best to begin with. I hope to get around to actually painting in the future, but my current environment is not the best place for such activities.
My second one (2) was a little better. The values for greens and yellows seem to be much brighter to the eye. The other end is red and blue seem to be really strong to the eye.
Results: I recommend checking this project out if you want to see how you treat your values.
I will probably tackle the 2nd project tomarrow! :)
I wanted to see what a pokemon trainer looks like in my style. They are like baseball players except they throw pokeballs instead of baseballs. :)
I could not post because Opera does not seem to agree with Blogspot for the last few days. I pumped this out last night before bed. I'm much happier with this one than the last one... O.o;
I still have a lot of trouble drawing humans... or painting them in this case.
Perhaps I am just tackling too much at once. Like in this picture, I tried drawing a young female. Doing the smooth skin with a skin-like texture and to make it "young" are not my specialties, at the moment, but every image gives me more practice.
And hair... hair is going to take some practice as well... O.o;
