Silent Judgement-Kratos Aurion

Rar!
Ya know, there simply isn't enough Kratos fanart out there. I've been bustin' chops trying to find some appealing artwork on the subject, and my findings are limited. Especially in his Judgement Costume.
sooooo.....I made my own! ^_^ I am fully aware of all the errors in his costume, so no need to point them out. ah, his costume. Really fun to look at, but a pain in the neck to draw. I did have fun coloring it, though.
Yeah. His posture is waaayyy funky, I know. >_< didn't realize it until after I was finished inking it and got up to look at it. Kiddies, don't draw on your stomach, it screws everything up.
The background is a different story. I know it's happy-go-lucky feel doesn't really suite Kratos in the least, but I -really- wanted to draw the sky Heh, the trees kinda suck, though. I've never been good at those. Any suggestions?
Where is he? um....lets just pretend he's at the heimdell forest (is that what it's called?) Those of you who've beaten the game, or have gotten pretty darn close will know what I mean.
Critiques welcome. And any tips on the bg, lemmy know! T.T I want to be good, I really doooo....
