Wow ^^ incredible job! o.o
I especially love the detailing you did with the clothing, damn good job. And as usual, awesome work with the anatomy ^^
Soul Bad-guy is definitly one of my favorite guilty gear characters XD
I would ask for a commission, but I has no monies T^T

You did a great job on all of the lil details on this piece! Some fantastic shading, and a great job in the variation of the line width.
I think the simple background compliments axel well; it shows off his details and carries on his colour scheme without detracting the focus too much from the details in his design. 
Overall great job! Some brilliant work. >.<

Oooh this is really good!
I love his pose, and the just the overall way you've drawn his body. I really like your type of stylised anatomy, although I can't comment on the accuracy of it xD (such a bum in the anatomy department, that's me!)
Love the colouring too, it has a solid feel but the smooth shading gives it a bit more depth and texture. I also really like the flame in the background, it looks cool 8D You seem to have a knack for simple backgrounds who add just the right amount in a picture to not make it overdone or totally boring.
Awesome stuff as usual Sy!

I want to write a critique, but I don't have time. (sorry!) I have to say though, that this is very well done and shows a ton of improvements in your skills. I particularly like the rendering on the clothes and hair.

Actually, what I was gonna crit on was how you coloured his musculature. On the clothes and gear, you've coloured expertly in terms of considering the objects' shape and interaction with light/shadow. But his arms/stomach appear 2-D because the shading doesn't seem to follow the lighting established for the rest of the pic. First consider the surfaces of these parts as a series of flat geometric planes (like the sides of a cube or prism) Apply the same shade to planes that face the same direction while obeying the light source(s) you set out. Then blend where the planes meet -- give more space and gradation for more rounded parts and less for a sharper edge. What I've found for myself is by doing this for the entire image before working on the details, the rendering of the image turns out more consistent in terms of lighting. I used to try to set out a colour palette at the beginning, but found that it's futile. It's easier to establish lighting and form first and then use the eye-dropper to get colours for doing details.
I forgot to say that I also like that you've beefed up the physique, as I've noticed the people you draw tend to have the same thin body type. Variety is good!
And stop calling me that! I'm only inspired occasionally to humbly share what I've learned (and only to those willing to accept.)

I see what you mean... for example, the way his right arm is bent should cause shadows to cast particularly in the forearm and the bend. I'll try to be more attentive to that in the future, thanks! =3
And woohoo for being able to beef up! X3 Thanks!
But I'm having so much fun! It's like Spongebob Squarepants annoying Squidward! But seriously, I do appreciate your critique, it really helps! Although don't feel like I'm dependent on you if it's stressing you! In actuality, I feel much more independent and understand my style better now. =3 I just get a giggle sometimes from imagining you squirm. X3
