i´d make the values more contrasty. lighten it up some parts. like the face to make it stand out a bit more, and those guns. you should check up on some metallic rendering!
the legs got me really confused as well. looks like it´s one big leg, or something. that maybe just me being stupid tho. :)
and his head looks small.

overall i think its a really nice design!
good luck!

Thanks Flaskpost for your honest crits, ive changed a few things you pointed out.

[sone_one]

his right arm is way too short.

maybe add some western-town sillhuette in the background by giving the sky a higher value.

other than that i really like it.

thanks sone_one for you crit, i changed what you suggested..made his arms longer and added a quick background, i will be going over the BG soon.

Maybee you should reference Navy Colt and holster for it.

Head. Too. Small.

Lookin' good though :)

EDIT - It looks like the composition is begging for something else to be there. My eyes are always travelling down the length of his cape and that building sends my eye to the right as well... Maybe try a subtle zombie horsie behind/next to him in the mist?
