WOW. That's amazing. I really like that you can get that close to your figure and it still looks good.
In the first picture, in close-up, your pencil scratches look overdone, but by the last picture it looks pretty good actually. I use a very soft artists pencil and just rub it on the edges, but I think I'm going to load up one of my mechanical pencils in the future.
Your effects are tastefully done all around. Not too much and not too little. Excellent presentation thus far. Really enjoyable to look at. :)
