Uh, not good at telling whether the way the light falls is right...
and people on sheezy usually just say compliments, not any criticism so here we go

it's pretty good but there's a few things that could make it even better.
more contrast - pick a spot where the darkest dark meets the lightest light. make it compliment the silhouette of the character
vary soft and hard edges - i'm seeing all soft edges for the light to dark. think about how light hits certain volumes and where there may be harder edges.
also for those large areas where you wanted to shade in the bg, use the side of the pencil instead of the tip . save some graphite , too. you don't have to fill the whole page. unless you are going for some kind of compositional thing/are compulsive

Ah, I'll try all that next time, except that I use a mechanical pencil for drawings so The side is almost the same as the tip
I'll go find a normal pencil then
is the cigarette's light the only light source you wanted to have? If so, I don't get why the helmet is bright, besides that it's really nice looking. I like it.

Hmm, I thought the cigarrettes light would reached the helmet oh well and thanks
Oh also, you can do the more traditional (?) approach of blending, Finger Smudging!
You're finger will get lead all over it and will take forever to clean but it works almost like a blending stick.
Just need a little saliva on whatever finger you're using, rub it in, etc. etc.
But I don't know how willing you are to spit on your finger and rub it all over your artwork
(you don't actually use that much saliva...)

I did that =D;;
and I used a bad eraser to smudge too... But it just wouldn't work after a while
if you can find these pencils (they make them in japan), they are called tombows, they are the best drafting pencils in the world. order a package online if you have to, you won't regret it. i only use tombows to draw with.

Could be possible, but on the top of the helmet?

I thought that the shadows from the sunglasses would leave the cigarettes light to fall higher up
Thanks for making me notice that
