Awesome! Looking better and better. :) The only tip I have is to make the cloth-on-cloth shadows a little more irregular -- they're uniform right now, so it looks like the outer cloth is spaced evenly away from the inner cloth, when in reality, it wouldn't be. For instance, across the front of his torso, where the edge of his robe overlaps the other side, the shadows would be more wavy -- bigger, softer, and farther from the edge of the cloth when you go toward the shadows of the fold, while sharper and closer to the edge of the cloth when you go toward the highlights of the fold. Let me know if you need me to clarify or post another paint-over -- I'm afraid I did a pretty crappy example of what I mean in the image I posted before. Great revisions, though! It's exciting to watch the progress. :)
