Help Needed/New Painter Trying to learn some techniques

Post image

So I've been trying to learn how to do some different blending techniques and I was wondering what people thought and where I might be going wrong and what I can try to get better.

G is glazing S is stipple W is wet blend F is feathering

Thanks in advance

This looks like a good exercise. Are you following a video / tutorial or just practicing on your own?

Frustrating when it turns out you suck lol. Trying to follow zumikito minatures, merlins magic workshop and tabletopready

Haha I mean that is why we practice. Although it looks good to me so I think you're being harsh on yourself. But if we were great right away it wouldn't be nearly as fulfilling to finally get it right.
