This is indeed a very beautiful piece with all its stunning colour combinations! What is interesting the work is full of colours but it doesn't feel like there were too much. The stained glass really takes my attention in this, it's such a grogeous background I must say. Also like how you faded the background behind the boy so that he draws your attention back from the stained glass. The lighting is great and feels quite real with the glasses' reflections on the floor and on the boy and his sword as well. ^^ You really know how to highlight!

But one thing I noticed the first time I looked there seemed to be no shadow of the boy, until the darker area - where the stones are shown better - started bothering me. I'm thinking that's supposed to be the shadow I was looking for. But to be honest it doesn't look much like a shadow to me. I mean yes it's darker area on the floor but the stony texture is a bit too clear on it. I think. And the light reflections stop suddenly, instead of fading nicely. To me it looks more like a hole than a shadow. Just my opinion though. But I suggest you to make it more fitting with the whole picture so that it don't stand out too much. Like similar to the villains shadow.

That's that. Secondly I have the thing with the perspective. As the villian is coming diagonally and the boy is attacking horizontally it creates an impression like the boy wouldn't be aming at that dark dressed person but going pas him. Attacking the air. I presume that's not what you wanted? I think this is because of the perspective and angles used. Perhaps you could have drawn the boy from a more front angle like 3/4 angle to make the attack feel better and give this scene some depths. Or then you could have tried a bit more dramatic view. Well, I suggest you to play with a stronger perspectives next time.

Finally I am thinking those pillars, especially behind the villain might need more details on them. Not much though, just a little like some small patterns or decorations.

That's all I guess, and don't forget you did a really great job on this overall! Those advices are just meant to help you with your furture works!
Wonderful job I can't help but to admire the colour galore! Keep up the great work!

Hello~ I'm from
This is such beautiful setting for a battle. The dramatic setting on this one somehow tells me that this is like final confrontation. 
The gorgeous stained glass on the background really beautiful! As well as the window's reflection on the floors. Beautiful colors you used in here. Even though there is so many colors on this one, it's not overwhelming due to nice contrast and careful selection of colors. The glass stained window is definitely my favorite part on your drawing. You have great techniques on lighting. 
However, with the beautiful colors on the background, the hero looks less focus. I'm aware that you placed your character on the light side & dark side purposely. But, what if we switch their background? I think it will make huge contrast and make your character more focus. Is the blur effect on the background is an efdect of the villain's magic? I think that's a great concept!
Also, you can try different perspective to increase the tense on battle scene. The worm eye perspective is very tricky (3 pt perspective) but will have a great impact.
Overall, you did a splendid job on this! Keep it up and happy improving ^^

Not bad. It is clearly one of those final confrontation battles. 

Next time, I recommend trying to draw the scene from a different angle, and more studies on human anatomy is always a plus.
