That be huge. what's it for exactly? cuz i think it could use some size reduction.
My main concern right now is that you've over-shaded his muscles. They look like sausages. Also, his chest is so well highlighted that his abs not being lit at all seems pretty odd. I'd probably continue with the main tone down the body and shade where the darkest bits are now with the slightly lighter tone you have everywhere else down there. |

Your skin tones are very flat. Here's an idea of what you can do with them to really make those muscles 'pop'.

I didn't really try to fix any anatomical errors. Work on your forearms -- they look just like ovals right now. The gloves don't fit the forearms very well. Try drawing the bare hands connected to the arms first, then the gloves over the hands. The black outline is very flattening, and if you were to replace it with a dark color if would make your image much more dynamic. Remember where your lightsource is! In a typical boxing ring, the lights are directly above, very bright, and the rest of the room is pretty dark. This gives you the chance to make use of dramatic lighting. |
