I'm not quite sure what you are looking for here, the majority of his outfit is too dark to really shade properly

The problem comes in that you can't really shade solid black very well. You can use dark purple as a highlight, but there's not much else to work with there since black is already max darkness, yanno?

The sword strap doesn't contour very well with the body. Think about how it would interact with the shoulder and pectorals!

I realise you're doing the superbrothers thing and this is a critique of that style as much as your drawing but chunkier clusters of pixels read better. Also thoughts on uniting the palette a bit and shading. I like the character a lot!

Thx Meat, how it looks now?
Really nice 32, but isnt what i'm looking for, maybe too much details in the face.
