Apologies in advance for this being a bit of a nebulous critique, but the main thing that jumps out at me is a lack of confidence. I can tell you know a decent amount of artistic theory, and that you worked quite hard on this piece; but there is an inescapable amount uneasiness that distracts me.

This, of course, will naturally solve itself over time, but it is something to be aware of going forward. I can most clearly point this out in the shirt wrinkles and hair detailing. The shapes don't feel intentional nor "designed" so to speak.

A more concrete piece of critique is that there are quite a few errors with your lighting. I can't quite piece together where exactly it's coming form. I quickly just painted over to make that more clear and adjusted the values a little bit.
