[This is a cultivator!] Meng Hao

Submission(?) Might go back and tweak a couple of things ;;; if that's allowed ;;;

Conception sketch
In tribute to ISSTH which made me miss 2 days at my co-op workplace since I got so addicted I kept reading until 5 AM .----.
The complicated one's the one I planned on entering in this contest but from this angle and with this pose it's pretty hard to see all the details I had planned out so the simpler one is just there to give you the full picture. I don't think I managed to convey the laugh at the heavens so if anyone has any pointers there, that would be great.(damn inconvenient head angles >.>)
Thanks for your time *bows*

Adding in some accessories like the sword, bag , also making the figure look a bit haggard and some sings of blood, would be great.
ASDF sorry for the late reply ;; last week got hectic all of a sudden.
Axdur Thanks! As for the sfx I don't think that would work with this heavily shaded style. I did add those dramatic manga lines though. Do you think that works?
IamMax I changed the eye holes to look more "normal" but kept the mayan influence. I drew a tiny bag of cosmos on his arm ;;; but yeah you can't really see it that clearly. As for other accessories, I don't recall the sword in this scene ?__? As for more blood, done and done >:D
Kronos & HydroPoop I'm really sorry for my ultra-feminine drawing style ;; I am more used to drawing women than men and it really shows, huh? But yeah sadly I can't do anything about it now because I used wayyyy too many layers for this drawing so making him bigger without distorting it woud be impossible TT.TT
Brolom Thank ya, I didn't know whether to go for a more scholarly look or not here ;;;
Everyone, thank you for your comments!
