I know he has nothing to do with the show--but I like how he looks like a mix between water tribe and earth kingdom.

my first impression was that the character has a great sense of 3-dimensionality, The lighting is working really well in alot of places and the character has a beautiful sense of place in the background/environment.

A few things stick out to me:
His feet look a little "heavy" in size. The soft shadows around the bottom of the feet are a bit confusing too, especially around the one on our right - it's making him less grounded for some reason.
The knees feel a bit clunky for the style of face. My guess is that you were working on some photos for ref and though it works really well for the most part, when you're simplifying the face you could work on simplifying more of the body. Just experiment, push and pull as you're drawing with the ref and find a good medium.
That said, I think you would really benefit from removing the stray lighter marks on the body that were indicating more detail to blend the body better with the very clean face. Or you could add more detail with those lighter marks on the face to even out the character.

...But even without any changes it's an amazingly awesome picture! You have a beautiful sense of style - you truly have a gift for lighting and you can see it throughout your gallery ^^ so keep it up!!! :D

thanks for the critic 8D, and I didn't use any ref for the body, that comes from a million and one figure drawings lol
