Themes: dark angst
First impression: [ 9 / 10 ] wow. i should say that your poster has that 'dark angst' feelings. i love how you placed the characters and typography placement. however, there are two things you need to note, it's about neatness and textures. will tell you more on each section.
themes: [ 15 / 15 ] full points for you! you really did a great job at this section. the way you put the colors and the character expression really showed an angsty feelings and the darkness. goodjob dear!♡
coloring: [ 18 / 20 ] actually, your coloring skill is the one i really love on this poster. you used gradient of brown and ended on black. it's very beautiful. the pic of krystal on the right side had a balance brightness and contrast. however, the pic of krystal on the left side is way too bright. look at his face and compare with the another krystal's pic. it's very different right? all you need to do just go to the exposure tool (image->adjustments->exposure) then, play with the gamma correction (move it to the right) and offset (move it to the left) i'm sure the krystal's pic will be more balance. however, the whole colorings is beautiful. goodjob!♡
technique: [ 22 / 25 ] your technique is wonderful, i should say. you blended everything in a right place and you cut the pic perfectly. every single thing on the poster looked good. but after i looked at your poster a while, i realized two things that actually not so important but a bit annoyed my eyes. i just realized that on the left side the textures you placed is not neat, so sorry to say this. the textures you placed on the left side, some covered krystal's pic. and some not. it made your poster looks not neat at all. you have two choices, between covered krystal's pic a bit or just not covered krystal's pic at all. ant on the right side, i just realized that you didn't erase the texture perfectly. it really annoyed my eyes, orz. but still, your technique is wonderful. you only need to improve a bit and doing graphic thoroughly.
resources: [ 6 / 10 ] your big mistake is in this section. there are so many unnecessary texture on the right side. the moon-look-alike texture on the right side is not so clear and make the poster looks not neat, as i said before. and plus, if you compare the left side and the right side, the right side is way too plain than the left side. the texture that covering krystal's body on the left is way too white compared with the other texture, you can just make the opacity lower or so. the other thing that i think was odd is the krystal's pic on the right is way too clear than krystal's pic on the left. because the krystal's pic on the left was like around many textures, and the krystal's pic on the right was not. you should make balance this thing, either make both krystal's pic around textures or make both of them so plain. if i were you, i choose the first one. but it's only my opinion, it's actually up to you. however, your textures choices are very good, i should give a compliment of that.
typography: [ 13 / 15 ] your typography is simple but catchy. i really love the way you put the shadow on "unbreakable". but still, i found some things that annoyed my eyes. for example, the "the" and "soul" font choice is not matching with the "unbreakable". they were like not so clear, while the "unbreakable" was so clear -bricked- the another thing is quotes box for "i was born" is not balance between left and right side, top and bottom side. just make the box bit bigger to the right and to the bottom, it would be so much better. but other than that, your typography is absolutely beautiful♡
bonus: [ 4 / 5 ] because the poster really showed the feelings; like beautifully tragic♡
total points: 87/100 - magneficent♡
tips for you: congratulations because you're being featured! woohoo! your graphic is absolutely beautiful. all you need to take a note is what i've said on the resources section, other than that, i think they were only additional.
