I think you need to completely redo this.
The head has this.. i don't even KNOW, but i think you should study human anatomy wayyy more.
infact, because i'm nice, i'll give you a posemaniacs link with some poses similar to the pose you're going for.

first of all, your sketch is way messed up, i think you should be a bit neater during sketching so you don't get messed up on which line goes where, it also doesn't help you're using teeny lines to sketch a pose this large, you should go with more smooth, uniform strokes and try not to feather it so you don't have all these bumps and stuff
also, his forehead's too high up and his ears are too close to his face. You're also drawing on the clothes when you don't even know what's UNDER the clothes. Start with a naked form first before you go onto the clothes.
You might want to try using an action line so your pose doesn't look so stiff. All of the body parts need to make sense. Try to make the pose infront of a mirror so you can understand it more. Also, if you're going to change the pose at all, i suggest redrawing most of it until you have a good grasp of how the body works and if the change effects other parts of the body.
the face is all kinds of messed up but i'm kinda bad at drawing human faces so i'm not going to help on that
and the colors are burning my eyes

i wish you could thank a post more than once without having to unthank it first

Starting from scratch.

Feet will be fixed.

his pose looks reaaaaally stiff, and no-one's feet actually do that when they stand.

the legs are looking weird, too. is he supposed to be bowlegged?

alright.

www.posemaniacs.com

get there, see how the human body's structure works, check the proportions(even if you feel it would help, trace some models by eye) and then come back.

do you have any concept of how the human body works
i mean
i assume you have a body
use that as a reference point

or metaru's link, that works too

it is, and i dont need a blue name to make my opinion worthy.

I think you should start smaller especially because you need to learn anatomy.
you also need to LOOK AT POSEMANIACS listen for once

I was using posemaniacs. I know the feet are messed up, and that he's stiff. I even said that in my post that I knew the feet were bad. All will be fixed. Also I'm bad at posing in general, so it might take a while.

Okay, I tried to make the pose less stiff and fix the feet.

right so i'm just gonna go ahead and suggest that you do something much smaller than this
because




yeah
