Well since it's unfinished it definitely looks unfinished.
Did you hand letter "palmer"? it's sloppy.
I like the figure.
Colors need tuning, and you should fucking finish shit before posting, our critique is fairly worthless otherwise.
I hope you can do decent details because this could be ok.

The lettering is a font called "the bold font". It looked cool but the spacing is shit. I'm going to replace that for sure.
I was most worried about the figure in the middle the most. That's why I posted it unfinished. That took the bulk of my work so far so I didn't want to waste any more time if I needed to replace him.

The figure is fine - for something not done, but, seeing as it is so half done, there's not much more to discuss until you progress.

OP it looks alright for a work in progress but it isn't "classic" in aesthetic, if that is what your client asked for.
You should do some research on classic box art, it is usually always very intricate and has a hand done character to it.
The layouting is fine but its art-deco style and the flat illustrator design style is very very contemporary.
Hope this helps.

It looks very contemporary, and no amount of distressing is going to change that
Do you have a particular era you are supposed to be aping or is the requirement just 'old.'
