The legs bother me.
But the top is top work (pun intended, lol).

Only you and Capcom know that purple is an awesome color to use in art. While it does have minor anatomy issues, it still is an pleasure to look at.

I love these colors you use; the contrast is so pleasing.

Hah, stovens style is seen from the far! That palette is totally Stoven!

 

Only legs are not stovenish...

The problem I see is that while his upper body looks like it's being drawn from slightly above, his feet are drawn from straight on. Also, his whole upper body looks like its in shade compared to his lower body, but that may have been the effect you were going for. But the colors are dead on.

You know when i posted this i just felt the anatomy was off. i think i was staring at it too long cause i wasnt able to pin it down.
i think i know why the foot looks weird, its gotta bee how the knee is shaded, the stark pointedness of the knee would suggest that the leg is facing in a direction not so consistent with the direction of the foot...
as for the leg length, i also thought this was the case , that they were too short, but  ive measured it and from his waist to his feet its a good length, but the fact that the crotch in the pants start so low...makes the legs seem smaller than they should be.

s***, looks like i have some severe editing to do, lol.
Thanks fellas (i told ya its been a while, haha.... *sigh* all i can do is laugh).

The legs seem to be a bit short and the fingers look a little too long, so yeah the anatomy looks a little off, but I suppose you just were focusing more on shading and colour so I'll say that the colour is brilliant, the shading and followng of the light source is perfect :D

let me just say that your coloring style is el perfecto....but the anatomy is kinda strange...ditto to the finger thing, the middle finger looks as if it is melted on to the index finger...the feet are the strangest thing in the drawing to me...the back foot looks too small, and the front foot looks like it has been chopped  off...everything else is smooth as  a baby's bottom though...

The back right foot looks a bit strange. Maybe if you angled it a bit.

Well, hopefully you are getting some joy out of your regular work.  Your level when you are out of practice is something I strive to achieve.  Beauty.

Hmmm... The way his right fingers rest on his hip looks just a bit off.  Maybe if the middle finger was curling down a couple pixels?
