I like it. One small crit though. I can't tell what's going on with his left arm (It appears that he doesn't have one to me) The overall design and execution is nice though, and I really dig the way you've used the floral pattern design as the backdrop.

Looks pretty good I'd thicken up his neck to match his wide shoulders

Thanks Zippy. The left arm is covered by a wrap.

Cool. I can thicken that up in the inks. Thanks

NICE use of blacks. You're doing great. I think giving him a thinner build is fine. I would watch how the line of his cape on the right comes down. Even if his arm is under the cape, make sure you could draw his body under there.

Love the graphic element in the BG, really sharp stuff!

Thanks HB and Shaun.

I just saw that I drew his face and the mask, so I'll need to edit out a bit of the nose and lips in the inks.

Inks

Here are my inks which are really just a spotted black, I take them a step further by washing grey over the image for a mid tone and then render in white pencil.

will post soon.

Here's my finished rendering.
