Holy shit this is good.
Texturing on soldier sucks.
Agree'd with Bubz on the jacket but I like the gruff beard on the Soldier.
Heat wave looks pretty good but the red needs to be a brighter shade. It also looks like the barrels are liquefying on the top, pretty sure that wouldn't happen.

Yea I'm not really good at texturing this is my second try at it
To create a texture like that conforms to the clothing, create a displacement map (google a tutorial; I'm not your keeper). Displacement maps work wonders when it comes to overlaying textures on to surfaces that have various angles and depths.

A heat wave looks completely different than what you did. Your best way of doing a heat wave is to duplicate the layer and (if you're using Photoshop) use the glass filter. It will displace and liquify the image enough that you can use a layer mask (if you're a pro) or an eraser (if you're an idiot) and make it look good.
What 5omeone said. Heat causes air distortion because it's forming a convection current (same as what happens when you heat anything, the hottest parts rise whole the cooler ones are sucked down, heated, then the process repeats) and this gives a shimmering appearance. A bit of smoke and some Photoshop brushes does not a heatwave make.
