    Great pics.

    Re: your jacket. I think the torso looks fine. It should be fairly loose and comfortable across the shoulders, but not so much that the fabric bunches or puckers, especially in the mid-shoulder area (your lower cervical/upper thoracic vertebrae). I'd leave it a bit roomy in the event you want to wear a sweater/jumper under it sometime.

    Your sleeves look a tad long (by maybe 1/2 to 1 inch). Hard to tell from a photo. Any men's tailor should be able to take care of that with no problem. They could probably even roll the fabric under and re-press the end without having to cut it, just in case your arms grow longer. (Of course, the button would be moved to an appropriate location as well.)
