I think your stuff could sell well, you have clean lines and have good proportions. I would suggest trying different poses and I noticed with some of the shading you did cross hatching bit in other places you just kinda scribbled them in I would stay consistent and do cross hatching all across the image.

“The way I see it, every life is a pile of good things and bad things.The good things don't always soften the bad things, but vice-versa, the bad things don't necessarily spoil the good things and make them unimportant.
Consistency is key! But don't down your traditional art! Digital is fancy and new, but not more important or better!
If you aren't comfortable with cross hatching maybe try layers of black watercolor wash, it's less permanent than ink and people go gaga over watercolors (take advantage of your traditional art skills!)
Also don't be afraid to increase the contrast in your piece. Use less white space and deep shadows to make it pop!

I'd have to agree with trying out different positions (I also have this problem lol). But I really like the way you made your derg here! It's so neat looking and I like the looks of the "scribbled" parts used in shading and detail.

Yeah I'd be interested in seeing more of your art work(especially if they involve Pearlcatchers) and yeah, like @
apliscosisco said using combining two different mediums can make for a more interesting image, same with high value contrast it draws the eye to it and can make your image a lot more interesting.

bugkid Looks great! I really like the simple black background.
I've found a bit of success with lineart and lineart + watercolors. Its good to have more than one option, varying in prices.
