hmm while you're working on that, definitely try to seize any opportunity to add to the framing of the composition, maybe pulling it out here and there left or up. i like the double triangles coming in from the side, great pose. Really just pull it out if you see a chance, i know it's hard hard hard...
This is my suggestion move the dude down a little so the horns are more in frame but you still get that overlap with the borders of the canvas. Just far enough to where it doesn't tangent. The way it is now it feels like frustrating, like i don't want to look at it long, or kind of a trapped feeling. Maybe you were going for that since it's a darker/ more sinister character, i just feel with the kind of big mountains in the background, it would better serve it for breathing room per say since the background is kind of detailed.
Hope i don't sound like an idiot!
