Thanks for the comments and criticisms, all. Some responses and answers:
The red hand on Karina is intended to be magic glowiness from casting a spell. I struggled with whether to do this, and even considered offering to trade a non-transparent Karina for my transparent one and just painting the whole thing. In the end, I decided to take advantage of the medium. Shortly after painting it, I regretted not using blue, since the red maybe looks more bloody than magicky, but I guess it ties into Bete, so that's something.
Eyes.. yes, eyes are my nemesis. I do pretty well with helmet eyes (Space Marine eyes, for example), but less so with human eyes, especially tiny ones like Wyrd's. The Nothing Beast and Void Wretches have purple eyes, although it's not very visible. Maybe I should have used a dark red to contrast more strongly.
