hi,
great looking design and excellent modeling- the surfacing could be a bit beter imho and i would saay that is your weakest point- the image screams for some SSS and the background dune has a computer made feel to it, specially the foreground and the stones-
the character itselfe is really well made!
besides this i would also say that the characters lightening is not as if he is in a desert- in the desert you would have a much greater ambient strength and would i think have very light shadows becouse of all the light that is reflected of the sand-
IMHO i would rework the background (if youre keeping the desert then rework the lightening of the character) and add SSS to the skin of the character

hope this helps!

This is a very interesting piece! It is a great blend of realistic and stylistic. I like the vivid and clean colours along with the small details in the textures. A great/unique character concept though I find that the breat plate should be less reflective. Great work man! 4*
