Just looking for some crits before I clean and color.

The head appears a little off to me. Misaligned towards the left side of the body to my eyes.

Colors have inherent luminance values.
Because of this I find it much easier to construct lighting in grayscale:

He's a bit low to mid key.
Some higher values could help.

I like his overall shape.
The drawing could stand a lot more exaggeration, but that's more of a stylistic choice depending on what you want.

I think this looks really good.
Two things I don't like:
-His right fist appears to be way bigger than the left one.
-Also his right foot stand doesn't match with his leg and knee pose. His leg looks like his foot should aim outward.

Feel free to disagree, I'm not an artist. :)
