Hi, this is my first time requesting for your help in my short time here. Would you please do a character art for my OC Ya Chi Silk? Here are the details:

His hair is short and a bit spiky down to the nape of his neck, maybe with a few swirly tendrils. It is also charcoal-black colour, just no highlights so it’s a little dull

He has a light tan complexion all over. His face could be a lighter tone with a little mole on his light cheek. The mouth is thin with dimples, and his cheeks could have a pinkish blush.

His eye colour is a greyish-black and almond-shaped.

His shirt is this dull orange Chinese long shirt called a changshan but with the sleeves about elbow-length. There are some beige and yellow accents too, as well as a subdued red long-sleeved top underneath. He has these old khaki-coloured loose, relaxed ankle-length pants with a bit of fray on the pant legs. On the feet are dusty brown sneakers with yellow laces, perhaps you could make the soles a bit thicker and black like hiking boots. This scarf tied around his head is light blue with a bit of white on the edges, and the ends would reach out to his waist. Finally, a grey fanny pack adorns the hips.

I guess his motifs are the obstacles in the story: mountains, fire and ice/seas, maybe a bit of wind stuff too. I kind of want them to be on the respective colours (e.g. brown with mountain-y decals, etc) but I’m open to anything at this point. And please put in some simple brocade patterns specifically on the changshan, anything looking woven/embroidered

Please make him have a smile that shows his top line of teeth and show a bit of denture in it ( know dentures usually don’t have wire showing outside, but make it look like braces brackets and wire on his two from teeth). Is it possible for you to draw a sharp, medium-sized nose? I would like Ya Chi to pose with his right hand behind his head and his left on his hip, if you don't mind.

Here are a few pictures for inspiration and reference:
