First tag I've completed on my own in over a year.

idk..That smudge looks a bit "dirty". Not sure if you know what I mean. Background doesn't seem fitting either. You can do much better judging by your current sigs.

Imo the smudge on her shoulder looks pretty cool, just wisch it had another colors.
I'm not really fan of this pink skincolors you used to create the smudge effect.
I also think the random pink and green spots have to go. If you would've put more of
spots with those colors in your tag, then they would fit. Now they looka bit
random there.

I'm not sure what that thingy is on the bottom right corner, but I don't think
it really fits in there. It looks a bit choppy and...yea just weird :p. I would just erase it.

Blendin looks good to me, so does the lightning.
And as i said, i'm liking that smudging on her shoulder, just not the color of it :)

Keep working on it mate, your doing great after a 1 years break. :D
Keep it up!

im with cs4 on this one bud don't agree with the bg choice and also the smudging i liked on the left but not the color choices needs more colors with it also the blending looks nice and lighting placement could be a bit better. kiu man im sure u will do better as u burn off the rust .
