Wanted to get this out last week. but I got sick.
Tried my hand on smooth shading again. it's okay, still far from what I would like it to be. I also looked at how other artists do anatomy and tried to mimic a few things. I kind of like how the line art went. But I fear I would not be able to replicate it from memory, so I need to practice sketching.

Anyway, here is Omal`ku stretching.
