    not bad bro
    First off I notice that the lighting is far too strong next to his head
    Should tone that down a bit.
    The effects look lq as well bro. Not sure if if you overblurred or they are distorted too much but they definitely need some improvement
    And yes a lot of blue. Add in another colour to get some nice colour contrast going on.
    The effects are also sort of boring and lack some pop in them.
    Maybe add a nice fractal or something along those lines for that

    this is rather nice i like the colors used so i think that was a good choice there
    lighting looks good along with depth so gj on that m8 .

    .things i think u could fix is the effects of the bg u have some on his chin should probably remove that . maybe try a different font as well this one u have is a bit hard to read but your placement looks like it be a good place for it .

    there's a layer of effects u have that's making u piece look a tad lq . and it goes up over your boarder as well so i dunno if u wanted it like that ? or not.

    its a nice style so keep doing what u doing , would like to see an update later from you .

    Yeah, the effects made the sig LQ after I blended the layer... Is there anyway of avoiding this when I'm using an effect with a black BG that isn't rendered? I usually use lighten or screen when blending my effects and lower the opacity, I must be missing something

    Damn there are some things I'm not seeing, this monitor is really bad I don't notice the effects overlapping the render until I'm on my laptop. Fixed most of what you were saying.

    I like the lighting you have on the right side of his head.
    What I think you should do is clean up this piece in the background because it's composition is a bit unorganized.

    Another thing I would suggest you do is focus on your lighting and try to get the lighting on the right side to emit properly.
    The bubbles you have don't really work as a solid effect that could just float there if you set it on linear dodge, screen, etc so I suggest you add that to a brightened area so it pops.

    Clean it up and organize the lighting a bit more. I would also suggest you add some adjustments to this to bring out the tones.
    Good job, keep it up.

    follow the rule of thirds when u place ur render..
    centered render = bad composition
    so yeah, the compo needs work.
    that blue brush is too contrasted
    lightning is coming from both sides of the head yet theres no light source at the left
    the effects look pretty random to me, those bubbles for example.
    ditch the borders, text needs work D:

    How do I go about making effects not look random?
