May I get some critiques for my model?

Hi guys!

Haven't been posting here for a while. I'm working on a portfolio right now aiming for Blizzard. Here is one of the small piece. I wonder if I may get some critiques from you guys to improve it. Plus, can someone give me some tips on final presentation?

Thank you so much for your time!

There's some really, really, nice painting here, but  I think you might have tried to do too much in the texture without enough geometry to support it, which makes it look a bit wonky seen from an angle.  I think having geometry define those big plates on the front would make it look much better.

Indeed nice painting, it looks a little too busy overall though, it could benefit from a few more plain areas, probably the metal plates on the sides as well as the wooden bar, could be more like the concept and not have so much information.

I think those gloves could use a darker value, like in the concept.  It'll help add contrast to the model as a whole.  Right now, I wouldn't let the fire light wash that far onto the gauntlet fingers.

Hi Guys!

Thank you so much for last time critique!
In this one I added more geo to the bone and wood part; had darken the feast, decreased some detail on the wood bar. Still wanna keep the poly low so I didn't add any bevel. Any thoughts?
