Hmm... Does darkening the items in the BG and adding the white to outline the edge of the character from it help a bit with the readability.

Also yeah, the arms all sorts of funky. I was working off a ref that had a similar position, but about 0 muscle. The arm probably should of been raised more and backed.

If you don't mind me asking what do you mean legibility through exaggeration? Just make the sword read more with the hilt? Or like exaggerate it's proportions/effects to get a better idea of what it does/belongs. I originally had the idea of having the sword tangle around his arm/sword handle and come off of that, but it was just too much in the forefront.

Sorry to ask a lot, I very rarely get critique. Love the big comb.

really flat and dimensionless, mainly because the direction of body parts are everywhere so it's not particularly possible to read what's going on. I'de probably work a good bit more on anatomy/perspective.
