The shadowing and highlights on the entire piece still makes no sense. you have a separete lightsource for the -almost- pillowshaded feet, one for the left hand, one for the sword and another one for the body/head. and the pose of that rigth foot is weird too(and now I see the left one's pose is odd too), as it lacks any kind of solid real shape. its above mentioned highlighting helps in the confusion.
the sel out on the sword(and almost everywhere) has no use but making it look bad. try to be a little more subtle with it, selout the entire piece, or leave it.
fixings those aspects migth improve this piece. its overall isn't as bad as I do portrait.
