Forrest's Sketchbook of Wondercanes and Dreamsicles.

The easiest improvement to make in terms of composition is to watch your rule of thirds. just slap your focal point over one of the crosses, and that will help a lot:


Also watch out for tangents. [link]
I see some touching edges along the shield (horizon and spear), the sword hilt, the loin cloth.
Also add a reason for dynamism. making something dynamic is a very difficult thing to do in terms of abstract concept. adding an actual 'reason' or 'goal' for an action will create more tension. for example: "two guys are running flat out, seemingly racing each other." cool. But then if you add "... and they're like 5 feet from the finish line." it makes it more exciting. please take this advice with a grain of salt though, I only learned all this stuff like a month ago :blush:
