Liar, this looks nothing like Helm

His hands have faces!  I'm not sure what to think about that

I like your range of colors; a little low on contrast but the details pop so no biggie. You should be able to cut out a few of your midtones, 12 colors seems like a bit much for what it is.  Anatomy of the larger muscle groups is off, googling any anatomical reference chart should help you put your bulgy bits in the right place (too lazy to make that sound any less wrong)

I'd cough up an edit if I wasn't at school, and on a Mac :x

dont have much to say from what goat did, but

the shadows should be more dramatic, after all hes got 3 things of flames near him, when fire is present the shadows are dramatic and the highlights are small,but powerful.

also, an opinion, i think the body could be taller, and the arms made to go only halfway up the thigh(thats about where they should  be proportionally) there are some things that could be more proportionate but no biggies :P

Your anatomy needs work. The design itself is pretty nifty though. Facial fireball digits.

8 colors with transparency. OR LACK OF TRANSPARENCY SO I GUESS 7.

my stomach hurts.   :D

love the IDEA. don't worry about goat, i can see the likeness to hjelm (especially the face-hands).  he looks like he is wearing a lot of bananas.

(i will re-edit with some c&c soon... im at work)

the character is nice, but i think it would look better with revising of the characters body, as in fixing the anatomy, the muscles are there but your not idk drawing them correctly

Thanks for the great comment and the nice edit guys.
I guess I could lower the colour count, and edit some anatomy
issues.
