Next time he starts, counter by asking if he's offering to help. Then just keep asking if he's offering to help every time he nitpicks, even if it's multiple times in a row.

"Why are you doing it that way?"
"It's how it's easy for me! Do you want to help?"
"I just think it'd be smarter if you did something else."
"Oh. Are you offering to help?"
"I'm giving you advice."
"Are you offering to help do it though?"

Force him to outright say "no, I am not offering to help" so you can say "okay, then I'm doing it the way that's comfortable for me. Let me know if you want to help and we can try it your way together."

He probably won't keep asking.

Hah, that's a good idea. I'll try that, though I'd bet good money that he thinks that hovering over me and criticizing me IS helping. I'm going to straight up demand that he either do it himself or step aside and stop commenting.
