Character Illustration "The Discovery of Evil's Bane"

[JamesMabe]

You've got a great consitency in this work.
What pops up to me is the lighting on the boots, maybe tone it down.
Think of where the light is coming from, from what I see the only lightsource is the sun and it comes overhead through the leaves.
Something that may help:
Draw straight lines from where the sun is to Link's body to see where the sun hits.
Wireframe the places with red lines to accurately depict where the materials absorb the light.

Other thing that pops out to me is the right hand thats holding the sword. It seems out of place and kind of stiff.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for the feedback, ultimately though between the time I posted this and when I seen your feedback I've called this finished, was a week between getting feedback between either place I posted this.
