Description Pleased with the end result! I wanted it to be darker image, to really get that light jump out. Because of this, it is best viewed on a black or dark background (at least, I recommend that).

Stock images I used:

Key: Key 4 - Stock
Face reference:    faestock.deviantart.com/
Chains: Ropes -n- Chains Brushes


Background texture : atmosphere FREE texture pack

Rock textures : www.cgtextures.com/

The rest is painted and/or part of my own resources.

Download for the best view (original size), it's worth it! 


Tips and help always gratefully wanted, I really want to improve my skills!

to have the light pop out like you wanted, you have to do some reflections on the key to give it some shape. it's a little too subtle, but i think that's all it'd need

I get that is is your choice but perhaps it could be a bit too dark. I do like it dark and I do know that you want to see the contrast, but I would suggest still putting  little bit of of light so some more of the great things you've done would come to light a little. Just a few shades lighter. Or a streak of light? or something to pop out the top of the key. It's especially hard to make out.

Beautiful work!

I love the creativity and composition!

If you like to have some tips, I can suggest you to make the picture a bit more bright. (I overall like the dark atmosphere here, but to recognize what is on the picture especially from the thumbnail, just add a little bit more.)

Overall I love how you added the textures here, but I also suggest to you to use them as basic textures and maybe add some more of different kinds, especially combining several ones.
(You probably know about this deviant , just take some of his textures and experiment a bit with them.)

But you dont need to change anything on your style and the composition here, overall its an amazing picture, keep it up!

Wow. Asbsolutely amazing work! Fantastic concept, and the dark tones of the image with only the inside of the head being lit makes for a truly impressive work. Well done!
