The first thing that catches my eye is the proportions of the characters lower body. The butt, hips, and thighs look like they're off a smaller (small as in stature, not body type) person, I think they should be scaled up, to fit him. The neck and head feel too big, maybe just a bit smaller on those. There are also problems with the perspective on the character, the shoulders are pointed down, as if the camera were above him, yet his hips are nearly pointed at camera, as if we were almost eye-level with his butt. Plot out where the camera is and make sure there is perspective applied to your anatomy.
There are also some perspective issues with the chair, computer, and speakers, but maybe just keep that in mind when cleaning up since they are so simple.
now that you mention it some of this stuff does seem a bit off
some of it is partially a result of not really drawing anything for a while,
life y'know
As illustrators we need to communicate ideas and that starts with design and compo. Right now your comp doesn't communicate anything like:
-who is this guy?
-why is he dressed like a ninja?
-what is the computer?
-and most importantly why should we care?
Know what I mean?
Hope my comp helps. I have no idea what your story is. But this comp has a strong design and good value structure so at least it can suck the viewer in.

Only way to get better is to do more!
