Although it's pretty kickass as-is, this could really shine given the right touches! Here's a few of my thoughts -
COLOR: You chose your palette well, but I think the figures could stand to "pop" a little more - it feels just the slightest bit flat. Lotta brown in there, and though red makes a good accent-color, maybe try upping the intensity so it draws your eye a little more. Also, it'd be good to punch up some of your dark colors to balance out the mid-tones and the brights.
ANATOMY: Since you're playing pretty loose and caricatured, I'll not get into too much detail; Overall your hands are pretty good, although you may want to take another whack at the one on the guy getting whacked himself - in the foreground on the left. Also, watch the left thigh on the guy in the middle - it appears to be longer than his right - and the left arm on the lovely wench; I'd shave down the highlight on her forearm a bit, as right now it looks like her arm's at a rather painful angle.
COMPOSITION: In a word, chaotic. Given, this is a barfight, so that's to be expected, but it still leads me in a nice circle around the image, and the Rule of Thirds appears to be observed, so I can amend that to "nicely chaotic." A minor nitpick is that, once again, there doesn't appear to be a clear foreground - I think if you darkened the guy getting punched in the face on the bottom-left, it'd help to separate the layers a little more. :)
LIGHT AND SHADOW: You clearly know how to work around a light source and where to put the highlights; that's something I'm still working on myself, so I'll congratulate you on that! However, I think you could afford to punch up the shadows on the figures a bit more and give them that tiniest bit of extra depth and three-dimensionality. Since you have two light-sources (the lantern on the wall and the moon through the window) I'd also put some more shadows into the background. Since your light is yellow, I'd go with a dark violet for that.
Those are the only things I can think of at any rate - but as is, it's still a right fine image. 3/5 and 7/10

Croiky!
well...
Well, I ain't sure what you were doing, even though it looks awesome, and it looks like pirates is the theme, so my only question is this:
What's up with the crackpot with the nun chuck?
Pretty awesome
