first post in about a year

i started my schoolism class about two weeks ago and am so excited! the following is the first sketch i did, the critique, and my finished work. more posting of critiques to come since the shading image was just turned in about five minutes ago.








EDIT:
i also went back and redid some of the highlighting on the knife. looks somewhat better i think. also did more edits on the edit and adjusted more shading.
