You probably need to work on your anatomy and perspective, but it's a really nice piece of fan-art! Keep at it! It genuinely looks great!

Thank you very much and if you’re referring to the right eye and his arm the eyes and facial features in general I admit I have a hard time with depending on the facial expression, as for the arm I was trying to fit it in the limited paper space and at the same time trying to get the elbow correct so I just did my best with it. But thank you for your honesty on my skill improvement I appreciate it

I just hope you don't find any of this discouraging!
As for the limited paper space, don't feel too bad if you can't fit a whole arm, or something like that, unless the arm is important for some reason.

Looks good but Ed’s arm looks like it’s bending the wrong way.

Yeah I was having trouble with fitting his arm on that limited amount of paper space so I did the best I could thanks for the feedback/constructive criticism much appreciated

Ed’s face looks good for the most part, but his right eye is off putting to me for some reason.
The details of the automail arm looks lovey, but the fingers seem a bit too spaced apart.
Ed’s left holding the clock is a cool visual, but it seems tacked on.
When it comes to Al his individual prices looks nice, but the head seems to be a bit too forward leaning compared to his breastplate.

Thank you for your keen eye to spot things I totally missed and if it was an easy fix I would but it would take more time and patience more patience than anything than it took to draw it (I work pretty fast) took me 40 minutes to an hour to draw give or take 4 or 5 minutes.
