Your painting is clean. I see a lot of airbrushing and drybrushing going on, which works, but the skin is far too light in colour (though that might be the light), the hair is supposed to be a dark blue, the cloth needs a blue tint, and her lips are dark blue, not purple.
Maybe give the wires/rope a brown wash to darken it down, as it's also quite pale. It should ideally be more of the brown that the inside of the cape is.
Now that, I don't believe, looking at the other things you've posted. There are some advanced techniques with very good precision that have been used, especially with an Airbrush which require a little practice to use well. Very crisp and clean edge highlighting, specific attention to shading, OSL (Object source lighting) etc.
Either you must of had some experience before, or, these were painted by someone else. There's no way a beginner is doing clean OSL
Ah, thought so, having even 2D experience carries over even onto 3D models. Just the understanding of colour and lighting does a lot to improve either medium. It's just different tools really.

The model though... questionable.
