Wow, i really like it, jup...really cool.

Only the head...i doesn't really fit on the whole drawing. It's no ugly or something...it's just...ehm...yeah i don't know,

But i know, i'm a little weird.

But beside that i like it a lot

I think it looks cool. I like the bug-eyes. The only problem that I have with it is that his stance looks a bit uncomfortable, like his center of gravity is off or something, but I think the costume design is great. You might want to think about giving him gloves or bracelets or something too, since his arms are the only parts of him that're not decked-out in crazy armor. They look just a little bare.

Keep it up though, I'd love to see some more drawings of this character.

His shoulders seem to be very wide. Also, there really isn't any one theme "holding" his costume together. All of the unrelated greeblies make the design very hard to read in spots. (You can't tell what's going on) Try to work on developing form by eliminating the dark outline around him, and save the darks for the core shadows. Sorry if this sounds harsh, it's just the same mistakes I make. Keep it up. :)

. . .Or leave a dark out line around the edges and do very little modeling within the figure for a more graphic look.

I do agree with Jmascho about the lack of a "theme" in the costuming. He seems to be dressed in a miss-match of plane-plate armor, decorated plate-armor, and long-johns. One suggestion might be to simplify the paterns on his chest armor so that it looks like it's part of the same outfit as his sholder pads, and helmet. The paterns look cool but they don't match the rest of the figure. Also you should probably change the crotch area to get rid of the blue-jean look.

I don't really have a problem with the wide shoulders, although maybe you could exagerate them even more, you know, like a He-Man action figure.
