Nice update. I would make the lighting on the sword match the figure. ie that warm rimlight and cold top light. On second viewing that sword looks ridiculously large. Maybe scale it down a bit. I still have issues with the perspective integration of it but I guess you're happy with it,. It doesn't really seem to weigh anything because of how he's holding it so maybe think about that.
Accessorise him even more, with some non-symmetric elements if you can and try using different materials. Fur, gold, bone etc. I think you need to put more detail into his face...that is where the main focus will go. Also consider extending your image up a bit as his head is almost tangent to the canvas...same thing with sword, but if you reduce the scale of it that would take care of two birds.
Hope that helps. It's coming along!
