    I love the way he emerges from the darkness and the brooding expression, but find the highlight on his forehead distracting. Maybe revealing that right eye slightly and toning down the highlight would help to heighten the expression.

    Tom,
    Nice work!
    I concur with the the previous comment about the forehead.
    I also think there are too much of the "body" on the bottom/right. I think if you trim it or black it out the message would be much more clear...
    HTH
