I think you're already in the wrong mindset for this kind of thing. You shouldn't want to work on something just for the sake of getting it published. You should want to write something because you have a story you want to tell, because you have an idea that you want to share with anyone who'll...

The bright yellow star and the expansive blue sky hid themselves behind a wall of oppressively grey clouds. Sunday. The morning forecast said that heavy rain would be coming and lingering for the next week. Those who chose this particular gloomy morning to...

I just realized that the prosthetic is on the wrong arm (it's on his left, so it should appear to be on his right when looking at him from the front). So, I think that's something that could be fixed in the final piece if it isn't too much trouble.
For his colors, just what I've written down should be fine. Most of the colors are dull or faded, with the exception of the broken purple heart medal on the necklace (though even that doesn't hold a very vibrant shade or color).
Looks great so far! I really like the hair and the look of the pants. Out of everything though, I think the prosthetic arm looks the best. I think the only criticisms I'd have would be his face, I think his facial expression should look a bit more grim (eyebrows lower and pointing more inward in...

Hey, thanks for replying to this! I like your art style quite a bit! To answer your questions:
His boots and pants are both similar in that they both have a weathered look, as well as a very plain appearance. His boots would look a bit like these ones, but darker in color...

Hey, no problem, thanks a lot for trying! I think it looks great even though it's incomplete and the hands are switched. I really do appreciate the effort you've put in.
I feel a bit bad posting this, because I feel like I'm saying "Oh, hey, look guys! My character is so good that he definitely deserves to take up someone's time to be drawn." It feels really arrogant of me to do this, especially since the character himself is probably not that well-written. But...
This is something I wrote awhile ago and posted on the RP site I previously frequented. I'm never happy with anything I write or make, but I think this story turned out okay. Criticism (constructive or not) is welcomed.
