While there are many steps involved in making each picture that vary in style, technique, tools, etc. I believe I am fairly consistent. The exceptions to that would be based on intent.
Besides that, I'm always trying different things and evolving as an artist. I put in the same amount of effort each time, but things change along the way.

I don't have any interest in doing those sorts of things at present. I'm just having fun. I appreciate your kind words and input nonetheless.

Fairly consistent is a modest statement. Intent in illustration is key and that doesn't always show in some of your work. I'm not saying you're not trying or that your effort varies, but there are noticeable issues.

It's not a bad thing, it just means you have room to adapt and grow as an artist, and it's great that you're trying new techniques and styles. I know it's an old saying, but it's true: the more time you put into it the more you get back. Again, that's not a bad thing. At this rate, these issues will dissipate with time because it looks like you're consistent with your output; and based on previous comments about your work from other members, you already have shown considerable improvement since your first few images posted here. I look forward to seeing what you do in the near future.
