Detailed the face and defined the clothing/bg abit more.

Blocked out roughly a structure to give the background more detail, also added more shadows.

Detailed the armor/sword and added some effects.
Added more effects, continued detailing; defined the stomach area.
The shoulder area wasn't working, so i changed it up and redid it, also added a Hue/Saturation Layer to give some vibrancy to the piece. Most significantly a glow/shadow layer was added with custom brushes to draw more attention to the character.
With some comments from CA.org, fixed the hair, armor, hands and chest area. Done!
