Unfortunately I switch ISPs and my new ISP doesn't have any webspace. My webhost only limits it to this small size...

I don't know what to say, aside from the fact that I love the shading. Sure, it's drawn in an anime style and there are some exaggerations with limbs and such, but I think that it feels very real, anyway. And looks dang good, too. The tiger in the back looks great, but what impresses me the most is the linework on the various ridges and crevices on the front character's arms and legs.

Lovely. Pencils are skillfully used and the composition has a strong flow (to the right) which draws the eye in the appropriate direction. The trousers are great, lots of texture. The whole thing is brimming with energy!

Thank you both for crits. I fix the link to the larger image.

Anyways I basically wanted to focus on the stance and as a result I forgot about ananomy and such. Arms and legs are a bit long but thats alright I guess. Well I am pretty happy the way this turned out. It's been quite a while sinced I did pencil art and I can actually see myself improving.
