We had to make an allegory for your favorite quote in graphic design so i used Tyraels image and revamped it to match the quote, tell me what u think ;-p
1. That archaic artwork you faded in to his wings doesn't do anything for the picture. They're completely different tones and art styles.
2. The face you put on him looks like a robot or something and is in cartoon, opposite of what the cinematic capture is.
3. The quote really doesn't have much of anything to do with Diablo
4. That doesn't look like a spiral staircase.
That's my honest opinions. And now here's from my heart:
I'm glad you took the time to try something out. I hope that in the future you will make more fan art, and I hope that your skill will grow with the more practice you put in to it
oh yeah it has nothing to do with diablo except for the actual, well tyrael picture i borrowed for the school project, and the face is off a real skull, just warped ;-p
And then the whole allegory thing required a visual representation of the words, so the artwork is of Michelangelo's "David" which shows knowledge, and then (Tyraels image) Death is in between with an evil grin that leads to hell, but he's kindof the buffer between the two because he's an angelic being with a sinister grin XD
My thoughts:
1.Settle down with the photoshop blending modes on the text. If you're gonna use them, be subtle. Between the excessive glow, color choice, and font, it's hard to read.
2.Don't use imageshack.
Also, what's the idea behind this? I mean, you've taken an angel and made him look a bit demonic, put him in a hellish-looking environment, and have a very religious (but not at all demonic) painting in the backround.. it all seems to clash, or is that what you're going for?
And the quote is nice, but doesn't really fit the subject.

I think the picture looks cool, but the skull looks weird... perhaps it should be darker? And the bottom half of the image looks pixelated. Not sure what's up with that. Oh, and the text looks pretty amateur (no offense) it appears to just be plain font with a contour and an outer glow. I would advise against bevels/contours on text from now on, they rarely turn out looking good. Try using inner shadows or inner glows. Also, the Satin and Texture effects can oftentimes really bring text to life. And, as Shiniku said, ease up on the outer glow
Those things aside, I think the picture looks cool. I like how the painting shows up amongst Tyreal's wings. You did a good job of blending the images together. You should practice this artwork, you're headed in a good direction
Number1superguy has got soem good advice, fer shure.
And heh, I just noticed my sig pic has text with outer glow, god, I'm amateur. Must've made me seem like an idiot... I really need to update this thing..

I made the face and spiral staircase from scratch
Respect to anyone who can tell me who the quote is by without using Google (or any other search engine) ;-p
