VERY nice, Layne! You're moving along quite rapidly! :)
#2 is my fav. It's very interesting, dynamic, has a lot of depth to it and great lighting! 8-)
One thing which stands out to me is that you have already mastered the most difficult and critical aspects of making images. Your composition is outstanding and you have a keen eye for what makes a good image. Any lack in those areas and editing skills are of little value.
As Brett said, the editing skills will come with time. It's really no different than learning to use woodworking tools. You have to get a feel for the chisel and the plane with different sorts of wood. The tricks are to keep making images, looking carefully at what you have made and thinking about how you might do it better the next time around. Carefully analyzing images made by others, which you see as good work, is helpful as well.
Dont' forget about Studio-V right here at Simviation. There are very experienced and accomplished artists right there who are willing to guide you along. Take advantage of that great opportunity!
Keep up the good work, M8!
Cheers,
Don
