Your skills look fine, although they're a little bit all over the place. My advice to you is to stop cross-training and focus on Amarr ships for now since you have T2 lasers. Your armour tanking skills look fine, so fly the abaddon for lvl 4s for now.. Then whilst your training shield skills save up ISK to train toward the Nightmare, as that will be the quickest for you.

I don't know how your fitting your ships, and I don't fly Amarr (lol hate cap management) but try this fit:

Abaddon - http://eve.battleclinic.com/loadout/5940-Abaddon-Level-4-Solo-Fitting.html
Seems a little bit fail to me lol, but I understand cap must be an issue for Amarr ships.. Seems fairly newbie friendly and the comments are mostly good. Christ, as a minmatar pilot the sight of all those cap rechargers is painful to my eyes.. Perhaps the fit can be improved with a cap battery as well, I don't know.. Play around with it a bit.

Btw you should not be losing ships in Lvl 4s! Google the mission name before you do it so you know what the triggers are - that way you won't get overwhelmed. Best of luck, and don't worry about asking questions! If you look at most reasonable requests they're generally not flamed :)

I used the below fit when I first moved to amarr BS. The abbadon works, but I found it tough to get a balanced fit.
I did as i got more confident start dropping some tank. Think the first thing I did was fit a sensor booster so I could target the frigs quicker and then pop the before they got too close, next I put in a tracking computer. If you have the patience you can tank mission specific and it will perform much better and you can get some more DPS out of it.
