Nice work on the details! You've done impressive job with all the little intricacies of this piece. One small suggestion, though--the Cap gets kinda lost in all those details, even though you've done a bit of shading to help give him shape. Toning down the overall brightness of the background by darkening the highlights there just a tad would help him pop out as the clear focus of the picture, I think. All in all, keep up the good work!

very good pose, and composition. Only problem I see is the profile of the m-4 instead of showing it in three dimensions. Try to not have as much rubble in front of the figure. It takes the focus away from the central figure Captain. Just work on the shadows of the mountains with more hard edges on the rock and maybe some snow or shurbs. Nice job.
