    I know I know, I suck. Be brutal, and give meh your best shot! I need constructive crit. (And yes, for the billionth time I'm trying to learn graphics)
    Please rate out of 10 (ie: 1/10, 2/10, ect...) 5/10 being average, 10/10 being amazing, 1/10 being an epic failure.
    Thanks,
    Fexxel

    7/10
    It's pretty cool. If you drew it yourself especially. I like the background and the contrasting colours go pretty well.

    Any criticism (something I should change, something I did poorly)?

    1. Too small
    2. I like only the background
    3. If Chuck Norris saw this he would have said "Those men could have looked better if they were dead"

    I rate it...hmmmm..uhmmm....
    7/10 because they aren't buck naked and looks an incredibly virulent form of the plague during a war but tastes like Happy Tree Friends! :p

    As for constructive critisism, you should put a border around the whole thing to make it neater.
    And maybe if it's a banner, some meanigful text in a simple way? Gah, I can't explain D:

    I have to say, I don't really like it because there isn't a lot going on in the picture, although you did well with the image you had. There would be much else to do with it. I guess I don't really like the idea of it - a horizon image of (soldiers?) with a background.

    Text would have most likely ruined the picture... (In my opinion)
    Unless you guys have font ideas/color ideas that blend with the picture?

    No.
    Text would ruin it.
    To be honest, I'll give it a 2/10.
    What's the point of it? Actually, I take that back; I see the point of it, but why?
    The only semi-decent thing about it is the background. A border would help greatly; it'd organize it a bit.
    Honestly, I don't know what else to say..

    I guess I'd like it more if it didn't seem like the foreground was just layed ontop of a color blend backgrond. Maybe you could make it look more like a sunrise/set which might fit together better with a darker horizon and a lighter top?

    What did you make it out of? Which renders/stocks?

    Anyways, I dont' see any particular focus in the sig. Is it the soldiers? If it is, I can barely see them... definitely give them more colour and make them less dark.

    Here's just a major tip:
    If you're going to 'shop something, try to have a purpose. You want to make it look better than the original.

    5/10 Give the background more textural qualities. It feels as if the foreground should be all black for a silhouette effect, but you have light area's. It would work out better if the picture was any bigger, but at the size it is now, the details just take away from the pic.

    3/10.

    Background is odd.
    The soldiers should be solid, in my opinion, they look slightly translucent so you can see the background and it doesn't suit.
