That's good looking figure, the face is well done. A suggestion for the blood is to maybe add a darker brown-red glaze with some semi-gloss mixed in? That should give it some depth and freshness.

That looks much better, glad to be of help. If it were me, I'd add one more glaze with a slightly tinted semi gloss, a very black red? Just enough colour to give a hint of coverage but not too much to obscure the bottom layers. I think it would tie the blood splashes together.
