a logo on the head, the part that covers his eyes, a cool logo would fit there. This guy looks pretty strong so maybe something that fits to that

The 3 brightest colours (the primary colours) are used mostly in superheros - Red, Yellow and Blue.

Started optimizing the colors, giving it some more dimension etc. I was gonna take your advice garfield, but i decided that im gonna do a belt where it would be on the buckle. That way i have more room and such

aww so shit that i need tuts? thats ****ing bad :( only flaw i personaly see though is that i have a habbit of making it look plastic'ish...

but what's so bad otherwise? :O i see it's my basic technique in digital art that's bad. I don't wanna do this thing all over again.

What can i do to make it better? (by the way im not done with it, still loads of shading i need to do) and how can i make him look younger?

Please try and help me out by giving me some feedback/critiques/comments! :D

Get a big massive 600px white brush and drag it over it repeatedly until it is no longer in view

(jk man :P)
Erase the mouth and start again, apart from that, looking good

An old man can be a superhero, y'know. It's the spirit that makes people heroes :P
