Pretty much published a cleaned-up version to my tumblr (and to reddit, here – had a personal goal of 400 points, almost made it!).

I want to punch his face already 
He’s a great character, but I always wanted to hit him when he showed up.

Cool. Is he carrying a bag of golf clubs?
HI!! Its a really great sketch the pose is very dynamic and you handled the sense of depth really well to make the sword come forward! I also really like the face and detail on the armour!!
I did a really quick little paintover that I hope will help you a little!
The head could be a little bit larger (i’ve scaled it up quickly) without loosing the perspective of the piece and the sword arm is probably a little bit too thick! I thought if you want to show that underarm detail of the armour that curving the sword a little more would give you room to have a good silhouette there and add a little movement as well! Try and tent the other hand a little more by making the digits slightly different lengths as they are in real life and curving that thumb out!
They are all just ideas so feel free to interpret them in your own way!! Let me know if your not comfortable with this type of critique in the future, but I’m happy to provide it when i can!

Woah, awesome! Thanks so much for the detailed feedback! I struggle with perspective still, particularly foreshortening, and so your advice is greatly appreciated. I’ll incorporate it as best I can 
Thank you again!

Here is an attempt to address your feedback. I didn’t want to curve the sword because it doesn’t make sense for him (or for the sword golf-bag) but I did change the angle to correct the arm I think. I hope I covered everything else. Please let me know if there are other issues! It’s great to have the scrutiny

No worries! You’ve really tackled those areas well, and with the adjustments I agree the sword is fine as is now! Its looking great and i cant wait to see the finished picture!!

For anyone who cares, I just discovered yesterday that Procreate saves an entire file’s draw history (!). So I did a video of Fordola from line art to final colors and put some music behind it. (I’ve never done any video editing, so I apologize for the simplicity of it!)

Trying my hand at cel shading, which is a lot simpler than smooth/realistic painting. This is the catgirl from way up the thread, as a yardstick for improvement. I’m pretty pleased with the progress.
