Hello @Ritik Gajbhiye ! I love the design, the overall shape of the character gives me a straight vibe about the character, very well done.
If I had to say something about it is that you need to be carefull with your lighting. Stay consistent with where your light source is and try to always keep it in mind when you are placing your shadows. If I look at the cast shadow under the head I figure that the light is placed on the top right part of the image, but I couldn't say the same for the rest of the character's shadows.
I'd also advise you to do a few studies of clothing folds and wrinkles. I think you got the shirt's armpit folds right but I find the ones on the bottom part of the belly a bit random. If you want to make a sense out of the randomness of folds in fabric I'd suggest that you watch this video by ModernDayJames where he explains the different types of folds that can happen in clothing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wz7SdRoMhT4
I hope you find this helpful!!
Honestly I think the painting is good, it's simple and stylized, yet pleasing to look at. I can imagine seeing it in an art of book of a feature animation movie. What looks a bit of to me is his upper anatomy and face. I think that angle of his traps is too extreme, I can't imagine it work in 360 degree turnaround. Also try to work on his face expression. It's hard to relate to the character right now. I think slight adjustments of his eyes Andrzej mouth would fix that. Other than than it looks pretty cool! I hope that helps :)
