Opinions are welcome.

i like it, has a very comic-ish look to it.
the hand shouldnt show the thumb like that, unless his hand is backwards,
and the way his two arms blend together look odd.

this might be stylized but his limbs are akward, such as his forearm is much longer than his upper arm and his upper leg is much bigger than his lower leg.

Mashalla!  Looks great in terms of coloring but the proportions are off.  The thumb should be facing inward, away from the viewer, unless the man is holding the shovel by the back of his hand.  The forearm also looks a bit odd, but I can't seem to figure out why.  Ryumara pointed out some others as well.  Keep it up my friend.

Arabic is my first language, as I come from Syria.  Anyway, to the pic: the hand is still a bit off.  You should just change the thumb placement on the original piece and make it on the inside so the viewer can't see it.  The way he's holding it now is possible, but it looks uncomfortable for someone resting their arm on the shovel.  Keep it up!
