I think you've done very well. Good pose, expression tells a clear story.
Your use of colour is great as usual, really like the rim lighting and the glowing axes are a good touch.
:aww:

Here's something you could try and I don't know if it's change much, but
you could try angling the trees so that rather than going straight up and down they're a degree or so to the left.
(So like say that they're at 90 degrees now, maybe rotate the layer so they're like at 100 or 105)
This can help give this sense of something being slightly "wrong" or "off" in the world. (Film uses it a lot)
The other thing it would do is potentially draw the eye back to the figure by kinda pointing to him.
In terms of composition at the moment the eye goes straight to the guy, then the axes and then it kinda wanders off the page...
See the guy sorta forms this triangle which points up to the axes. The axes make the eye trace their outline and then it drifts off, following the angle on the top.
Because the trees are in an orientation we expect the eye sorta skips over them. However I think that if they were angled it would draw the eye to them and back down to the guy.

But yeah, I really like this one :D
