He looks really cool! I love the combination of parts, for some reason they all work well together. I would say though that the pose is a little odd? I can't quite put my finger on it, I think he's stretching his legs too far apart for what his upper body is suggesting he is doing. It looks more like he's attempting a seductory lunge than attempting any kind of combat.

Perhaps angle the body forwards to give the model a better flow, or reduce the space between the legs. Oh yeah, and drill out the barrels of his pistols :) Other than that, great work!
