I think you could push the values more. Lighter values in the background for atmospheric perspective, and darker values on the character. Here's a very rough example.

the dark blood on the sword kind of mixes into the background which bothers me a bit, but that’s just a small nitpick and otherwise i really like this!

Wayyyy too dark, I agree that it needs to be darkened up. Just not that much.

What are we supposed to be focused on? What's the focal point of the scene?
Dramatic lighting is dramatic, but sometimes, you just shouldn't - or modify it with other light sources so the focal point isn't so deep in shadow, and creating a visual black hole in the middle of the panel.

figure a way out to cast the light onto his face. The guy that turned everything dark has a rightish idea. I think you should make his abdomen area darker along with his inner thighs. . . just not as dark as he made it. Every time I open the picture my eyes are immediately drawn to the top of his hair.

thanks for all the replies, and actually giving proper advice in a civilized manner. I won’t go anywhere further with this, but I’ll incorporate some of the possible improvements y’all pointed out in my next drawing. I’ll upload it here as well.

I think you could calibrate your monitor more. A better calibrated monitor will allow your images to not look like shit on other peoples devices. Here's an example.

Make your light source even more powerfull, play with gradients ("addition" fusion mode is your friend)

needs more reflected light, if you're going that dark, you need to play with the subtle value changes to draw focus on the face and certain spots of the body.

The left forearm grasping the sword handle is too long and you should see more of the thumb palm side of the hand from this angle.

The sword shouldn't be facing the viewer at a profile front view as well. Try turning it a little bit to the right (character's left).

the right hand needs work and the design of the right fore arm as well - it's two wide from the base.

Everything else looks alright.

You can refine your outlines and this will look good as a finished piece.
