Hi guys!

Finally I've got it done to start a new cover. :)
Your thought on this please?

Great start buddy, maybe just the sentence "A film by.." is a bit hard to read and the drop shadow doesnt work maybe make it in yellow ?

Good to have you back buddy, that top line is a tough read :)

Great to see you making a new cover, and great start. Only suggestion is the same as shoty. Maybe you could drop the light behind down a bit, or darken it?

Good start, i am only wondering if the guy in the background is a little too prominent?

Looking good! I agree with MM about the guy being too prominent, the rest of the background is blurred but he sticks out like a sore thumb.

Also the tagline at the bottom, maybe decrease the size a bit and add some space between each letter (tracking).

Thanks four your comments! :)

Some changes:

- moved down the light behind Liam so there's no problem to read the sentence anymore
- new hair for Liam (at least some parts) to fit the darker area behind him
- added some space between the letters of the tagline
- blured the guy in the subway as well so he fits the other parts of the image

This was the original image for the background found on google:

Motion blur was used on the left and right. Tryed to let it all look like it's only blured. I don't wan't the viewer to think the subway is moving (then the open door would be senceless ^^) but the focus should be on Liam. I hope this works as it is now.

Looking better now :)

How about adding a colour overlay of the blueish/grey to Liam to blend him more into the scene, like the attached.
