there is absolutely no definition on your mech.
E: how about actually creating a piece of work that actually had detail? all of your work so far is really just... blurry.

Have you ever considered trying out a different art style? Maybe try outlining stuff before you paint it in? What you're doing now (and what you've been doing for the past few months) doesn't seem to have been working out for you or turning out better results as time goes on.
What about the brute? But ok, it was 2 am in the morning I tend to rush on those, if I take my time even without lines I can do definition fine:
But I usually don't have the time to do things this well, also the reason I do stuff in this form is because I CAN work fine with set outlines and penciling, and because of that I want to expand and get out of my comfort zone. It produces worse work, but it helps me improve:
No, you don't do definition fine. Squiggly line details that are blurry is not definition. There is nothing crisp. Every piece of that work has poor gradations and does not communicate the shape of anything in the work.
Ok, anyway to fix this? Do you mean to set up bold, specific outlines?
No, you can't do definition fine. All of your work is sub-par at best and has almost no solid borders. Obviously it doesn't help you improve, as the quality of your work hasn't gotten any better for quite a while. Stay in your comfort zone if you produce better work that way, because you're not "improving" at all. Don't push that bullshit on us, you know we're smarter than that.
Just for once, sit down and draw a complete outline of something, then shade it in, then add color. Do something differently from what you're doing now and what you've done in the past.
Also, if you don't have the "time" to sit down and actually produce something worthwhile, maybe you should chose another hobby. You need dedication if you're going to improve, but right now I just see you using the same formula over and over with no increase in quality, and with all the same excuses played out over and over and over again. Consistently, you go "oh it was 2 am" or "oh i got bored" or "oh ill fix it later", and we never see anything better. I don't know where you're getting the idea that what you're doing is good work, but maybe you should stop taking opinions from that source because it's hurting you. Time and time again people have told you to do the same things - work on definition, use more reasonable canvases, show us more detail - and yet you never do them. We're telling you things for a reason, and it's quite irritating to people when their honest opinions regarding what would make you an artists goes completely ignored every time they put it up.
I don't know what will make you do better, but what you're doing right now isn't it. Look up videos of painting in PS (youtube or google, there's plenty to keep you occupied) and see how other people do it. Look at existing peices of work and try to copy them. And above all, actually dedicate yourself to your work if you expect people to take you seriously.
ok
don't use a soft edged brush so often, and constantly work with opacity and stuff like that. Everything looks painted with different sizes of the same soft edged brush.
My god!
So much white empty space, please crop it. Use [shot] tags please!
Also if you want crit then don't make up excuses such as:
