Vision: Much stronger than your last attempt at a photo manipulation image. Shading and lighting is much stronger and more visible within the image creating a much stronger atmosphere and definitely helping with that dark, evil concept. Field of depth is present again in this one and slightly less cluttered than your battlefield piece creating an overall more spacious and clearer image. Also attracts the viewers attention to the figure of primary interest, the character himself. Also purple is my favorite colour (vry gud).
Originality: Clearly a strong influence from the work of a.deviantart.net/avatars/i/a/i… " alt=" " title="iamsolidsoul" /> and it shouldn't affect my overall views on the piece. Still even with this there is a very clear presence of Mackaged in there from which I can still tell from first glance that it is your work.
Technique: Not sure how I am meant to properly rate this without actually being able to study the PSD file itself but from what I can gather from your description it will be more than good enough. (140 layers, I can't complain) I imagine a lot of duped objects with a different layer style or effect etc. Not sure if smudge tool. Obviously a strong use of filters (blur, etc)
Impact: Well I creamed my pants when I saw it. Is that good enough?
Overall gud job *IamMackagedSoul

Thank you, A LOT for this critique.
Ok, I admit that I have worked hard on the character.
I've tried to do a good lighting on this one, and it's not bad I think.
Now I just hope my next works gonna be good as this one.
I'm always inspired by Solid for how he uses the colors, he is so good at this.
And I always don't know how you can say it was my work.
Seriously, how did you know this was my work ?
For the technique I can't tell you if I have doing this right, my layers was not classed, my PSD looks like a trash. :I
And I haven't used the smudge tool.
Sorry for the impact, I can buy you another pants if you want.
*IamSolidSon. Ahah.
And I hope you understand this reply, my english is too bad :I.

This wallpaper: a.deviantart.net/avatars/f/u/f… " alt=" " title="FuckingAwesome" />
My only real complaint with it is that it looks like your emulating light from above the guys head, and the light refracting from his chest don't match anywhere on the hood, nor does it indicated any light reverb from the dust particles he is generating from his vorpal orbs of doominess. Same goes with the lighting angle on his face. The lighting on the chest indicates a slight refraction from top right to bottom left, but you don't see any lighting contrast on the face that displays that.
Other than that this wallpaper makes me a.deviantart.net/avatars/m/o/m… " alt=" " title="moistplz" />

Yes, I'm not really good yet for the lighting.
Since I've started Photoshop I have never really worked on the lighting, because of the ponies. Now I work on humans, logos, etc...
So it's sure that the lighting must be good.
So, I hope my next works gonna be better with the lights.
But I'm glad you like it btw, and thank you for the critique.

Vision: I could say, that it's most wonderful work you've made! The castle, the glowing and this "devil" makes it all perfect.
Originality: Impressive and realistic, but why does sun glows purple? Other than, fantastic.
Technique: As far as I see, you are inspired by *iamsolidsoul , aren't you?
Because you're favourite colors are pink or purple (for me is purple :\ ) and cyan, but in here, you use only purple. Still good.
Impact: "Maybe 140 layers. And maybe 8-10 hours of works, too long." I actually take 3-4 hours for making a wallpaper, and maybe up to 20 layers I've got.
"One day, I gonna edit this wallpaper. It's not really good like this."
Are you serious? Dude, I'll be honest, this is massive good work, so don't give up!
And sorry, that I'm a little bit bad critiques, just I'm literally not good at it...

I love the pink, the cyan and the red, but I can't work with the red, too hard for me at the moment.
Yes, the lights are pink, It's magic, ahah.
I'm always inspired by Solid Soul and some other artists for the techniques.
I know it's a good work, but it's not really what I have expected, so I gonna edit this later.
And thank you a lot for your critique.
