    sup bud. I'll give you some cnc;

    - Focal point is weak, cant tell if its the skull or the graphics to the bottom left of it. (which aint too great)
    - Cant tell if you've blurred certain areas of the bg to the right and left, which looks like to me, 'random depth'. The blur should be directed around improving your focal point, if there is a certain area you want your viewer to look at, that should be the part with no blur that'd you would usually sharpen to enhance the effect of depth. Your second current tag is a good example of that, though your recent attempt the eye wanders around with no pull to a certain area.
    - Effects could be a little more vibrant you know? Should be more appealing to look at, like some HQ graphics that you could stare at for hours. You could get this by doing bright colours on a new layer and setting to overlay (experiment with what other looks you could get on other settings); Also, try different gradient maps set on different options. It's simple little tricks you can do to make your colours look hot, get creative and experiment with your own ideas.

    Keep it up though mate (if you totally get back into GFX)

    Ahhhh god old OneTwo, I missed you bud!!!!!!!
    Yeah my graphics aren't as sharp as they were getting, even my currents aren't as good
    as i'd like them to be :P, but I do appreciate the comment as always bro! :D

    Yeah I know about a few things you've said in your comment, I'm not finished with this
    beautiful piece yet, :P :D I'm still adding quiet alot, and changing alot just got stuck with ideas
    and was hoping someone like you would come along and help me out <3

    For instance I'm going to take off the left and right sides of this tag and add a different look to the
    BG, I haven't been feeling them this whole time and I can't get anything to work with them that
    I like :P so I'ma go a different route and see where that gets me.

    Anyways how are you buddy?

    Yeh thats good, and your welcome bro, always glad to help. Before you add a stock/render, try and get something good going with the design and graphics first; you should be designing around with an idea of where your focal point will be, adding your graphics and designs to correspond with your focal. Like making sure the directions of your GFX flow nicely around,towards or away from where you want the viewer to look. once you have something that looks awesome graphics wise, then add your stock/render and go from there, blending it in to suit the colours, lighting and whatever else you've added so it doesn't stand out. Then you can add even more highlights over it and graphics that will immerse it with the background and make it one.

    Though I'm good, just quickly stopping in, saw your name, though'd id help and now I'm off. toodles lol
