Sigma 18-35 f1.8 Art
This new sigma seems interesting. Just heard of it for the first time now(havent been updating my internal camera database for a while) and it surely makes the whole 1.5/1.6 crop sensor thing more viable.

How do you like the 85mm compared to the 50mm?
85mm or 50mm depends on your personal needs and what other lenses you have. On crop sensor i would prefer 28-35mm lens and 85mm over 50mm(i had 28mm 1.8, 50 mm 1.2 1.4 and 1.8 and 85mm 1.8), but if i had to pick up one lens only and wouldnt have other primes, then i would go with 50mm. 85mm is better for head portraits and when you need to reach out slightly more, but really the ideal portrait field of view is 85mm on a full frame(can be longer too, many use 200mm for example and 135mm is also popular), 50mm on crop nikon is 75mm on full frame, so its not too far away from that, which makes it quite viable and the difference isnt huge when it comes to portrait results from each lens. However 85mm on crop camera is too long for most shooting and too short for anything tele. Its kinda on the bad spot for crop cameras, but could work for stuff like candid portraits on street, skateboarding and ofc for some objects on ground or something you happen to find, but 50mm does that as well. Basically 85mm is too long for anything that has more than one subject(unless they are far away) and too short for birds etc.
If i had your setup i would keep the 50mm.
