First impression:

The Colours really bring out feelings of discomfort when looking at this guy. Which I think is something that an artist should always strive for. Which is to bring out a feeling of any kind. This makes the viewer involved with the character and not just someone looking at a picture.

Vision
This person is someone that I wouldn't want to get too close to. Getting into a fight with this guy is something I personally would avoid, simply because I know where his hands have been and I definitely don't want them anywhere near my face.

Originality
Achieving something original is like finding the holy grail. However when you get it, it's always a great feeling. The characters pose would have been pretty standard for me if it wasn't for the fact that his hand is going into his business. That alone makes it something you don't see everyday.

Technique
Your ability to create consistent clean lines makes your art style something great to look at. It looks like something that can be animated in a feature film and I as an animator enjoy the type of lines you achieve here.

Impact
Now I have mentioned his right hand a lot, however for me it's what makes it a great peace. The colours are so saturated and hard to look at that it complements the character on what he is doing. The character either is trying to look hot, sexy or purposely crude, and if it is the latter it definitely is working. Especially with how his eyes are staring at the viewer like he wants to eat him/her.

What to look out for:

I don't know if the over saturation was something you did on purpose or not, but it really is hard on the eyes. If it wasn't for what the character is doing, this wouldn't normally work in your favour. However your choice of shadings make the this a very interesting piece and is something worth experimenting on.

Personally I give this piece a 8.5 out of 10.
