Manga-Fracture (Fractura) - New character "Quervin" - Final design

Quervin is a character from my manga "Fracture," one of the main group's co-protagonists. I planned to make him look older, but there's already another elderly character, so to differentiate him, I gave him a different age and appearance, while maintaining his original role as a guide and trainer for the younger characters. He fulfills this role alongside the older character I mentioned.

The idea behind his design is that when you see him, you think, "He's a tough guy," without going to the extreme of giant muscles or scary designs. I don't think I quite nailed it, but I hope the context of the story and his introduction will be enough.

Finally, he's one of the good guys. He's a military strategist and fighter. Yes, that's a scar on his face, and yes, that's a robotic arm or prosthesis. (I included the scar and arm as direct consequences of his lore and role within the manga, with the goal of conveying a greater impact when telling his story, thus better developing the protagonist narratively) - (I know this scar and prosthesis thing has already been used in many other stories for the same purpose, but I think it's a good resource for what I want to tell, so I don't mind using this kind of thing)

-I would have liked to make him balder, but I already have 2 or 3 bald guys

Here we see the protagonist, Hikaru (long hair, wearing a white jacket), noticing a suspicious man stealing something, and Hikaru punches him.

All opinions are welcome.

I've been writing a story called Fracture for a little over a year now. It started as a strange superhero story, but it quickly grew in scope, characters, plot, and so on, until it became a whole universe. I planned four parts, each with 60-90 chapters. It's a shonen manga with sci-fi, action, and adventure elements. I have other personal things to do, so unfortunately, I'll be drawing very slowly, but I'll upload each chapter as soon as I finish it. My only goal is to publish my story, and hopefully somewhere where anyone who wants to can read it for free. I'd like to say more, but I don't want to spoil the story. I'll use this account to post updates, although I also have accounts on other social media platforms, but I'll organize those later.

If anyone has any tips or advice about publishing or creating a manga, or has been in my situation or something similar, I would greatly appreciate it.
