Well, I've finally sat down to finish a sketch. (I should have used the time to work on the contest) I had been working on this concept for a while. I'm glad to see there's much fantasy style art working it's way around the forums.
Here's the story to this character. He is part of an elite infantry unit known as iron hellfire angels. they got the name due to their armour being forged from hellfire. (iron meteorite that's been hammered) that's the reason for the iron "wings". There are some real life hammered iron meteorite (I forgot the proper name) weapons. all novelty of course. I'vve heard that while novelty, the weapons are very sharp and much heavier than that of normal iron. or I could just be making this all up. oh yeah, the sketch:

STRUCTURE before DETAIL!

Your anatomy and volumes are swimming all over the place...lock down the structure first...

Draw the character from the inside out...then you noknow if his arm is misplaced because the armor threw you off...etc...

Your shading is flat and you have not defined your primary light source...

Kudos on going for a strong pose, but you can still push this pose more...make sure the silhouette reads well...

But the one thing I can't stress enough is...

STRUCTURE
STRUCTURE
STRUCTURE

Peace.
