i think you should make the silhouette less jagged, ie "correcting" the outline as you check it.
also, i think you should restart the shading on the shirt and trousers, since it currently doesn't convey volume.
if you're not comfortable about how to shade it, look up a reference you feel you can emulate. as usual, i'd recommend you not working on a black or white background, as it tends to make palettes pure and bland. giving the background a colour gives a context to your subject.
anyway, i hope you'll stick to finishing this!
