Well - here my two newest works: C&C Pleaseeeeee:

 

First one: I don't really like that gradient map combination on it... Try a B&W?
Lighting is OK-ish. Is that a clipping mask I see? If so, I like that. The bordering is kinda messy, but I like the sharpening in the middle. More contrast and flow would make this a lot better.

Second one: I like the effects, but try to keep the lighting consistent for more effect. There's light coming onto the right side of his head, but there is a projection of light over his left. So that's kinds odd. Nice splattering. I'm not too sure about the clipping mask cuz it crowds it a little. Maybe a smaller clipping mask would do better justice.

The first one. I don't honestly know about that light source you added. The gradients, and the minor effects look good though. I like the simplicity you added to it.

The second one. It's great looking in my opinion. The only things that I don't completely like are the colors. The clipping masks of it looks pretty nice. I think you should add somewhat of a definite light source though, and possibly more effects.

Overall, good job, and you're improving every piece you do. Keep it up .
