Nice piece! I like a lot of things about this. The face in particular is very nicely done. Darktiste made some excellent suggestions already but I could add that with the two defined light sources you could have had a bit more fun throwing shadows and bounce lights in this one. I would personally like to see the heavy white rim light toned down on some of the different materials and fabrics, and perhaps some care around overlaps where the rim light would avoid.
I hope you don’t mind but I did a quick PO just to show a few things. The big items mainly being adding more dramatic cast shadows. If the fire at his feet is casting a shadow of him on the tree I would like to see it much higher up the tree. The added shadow on the tree on the right to break up the moon rim light and fire light to show a bit more form. The rock he is sitting on like dark called out could do with some separating from his leg. And if that is the moonlight rim light on his sword maybe we should have his head block it out a bit. But just my two cents, these could all be intentional stylized elements and in that case rock on dude. Keep up the great work
