Im going to be honest and say its a miss. I like the idea behind it, but the background just seems like spatter. And as the poster above me said there is a lack of blending and depth. Also work on your lighting, its all over the place.
The blending is horrible. There really isn't any depth to it. And the lighting is pretty bad. The text works OKAY with it, but the render looks like it doesn't even belong there. The effects are okay, but there isn't much variety, it's mostly just splatter or something similar to it. A lot should be worked on for your next sig.(I'm sorry if I sound insulting, I'm just trying to give my opinions and criticism on it in as nice a fashion as I can.) My rating: 4/10
there is no real compo, solid effects, or blending here. typical beginnerish sig, try some more tuts and you will improve.
Thanks for being honest, I suppose. Depth has never been my strong point. Here's version 2, hopefully with blending that you all find satisfactory (Also: I'm bad at blending. lol)
With some better colours, lighting, depth and text this would be great. I actually like the background effects ^_^ Text though.. just stands out too much and it hasn't been done well. EDIT: I see V2 now, its better but blending looks really bad when you just erase the sides.. Try to put some effects or smudge overlapping the side of the person?
I like the bg effects, but yes, it really needs better blending. v2 is better, but the blending could definitely still be improved, and it really lacks depth. (maybe you can try having the gun as sharpened focal, and blurring the face, to help depth? but you'd need to work on the bg a bit too) it's isn't that bad to me tho. might be that i just saw the movie but i like the idea
