Well, first of all, *awesome*, awesome work here (as usual). I am not sure how come you have requested a critique as lots of people (myself included) would be happy to draw something half as good as this.
Your style is great, you combine some realistic traits (e.g. faces) and cartoonish traits (e.g, impossible muscles) in a fantastic blend. It is something I personally like a lot (and I wish I was able to do!). This obviously biases this critique.
Outstanding points:
- The man himself.
- The insanely detailed tattoos.
- Great background, the ink brush at the back and the hanzi/kanji look good.
- Good colour scheme.
- Excellent shading technique.
There is only a very minor detail which I could point out as "bad", and that is the tattoo. Well, not the tattoo itself but the way it doesn't "wrap" around the muscles. I know it would be really hard to represent this and that it adds lots of time and effort to the drawing.
It just seems to clash with the volume the shading provides, sort of flattening the left shoulder.
As I said it is a very minor detail and after looking hard to the illustration it was the only thing I could find.
GREAT JOB!

oh man you get better and better. I like how this guy isnt as bulky as your other dudes. Gives you more chance to work on the definition of the muscle. The shadows and shading are absolutley perfect, his pecs are beautiful.....i dont know why but i was looking for flaws.....lets blame society for that lol. but i cannot find any. You inspire me to create guys like this.Β
Such beautiful work always! never stop!Β

This is outstanding. I can't pick any flaw in it. It amazes me every time how you are able to make the bulky anatomy work so flawlessly and your color technique brings tears of joy to my eyes.
This is truly top notch and I feel really honored by being allowed to watch your work unfold.
I wish I was able to wrap my head around the way you shade and I can only hope to one day develop a tenth of your talent.
I would like to thank you for sharing the high resolution that allows amateurs like me to dissect and study what you do and learn something. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Well hey, I think the horns look very good on him.
This is pretty amazing work, I must say! The tattoos look great, the colors and shading look spectacular, and the anatomy is spot-on. Really great stuff!
