Themes: supernatural
first impression: [ 9 / 10 ] i was totally amazed when i took a look at your graphic. neat and the supernatural feels is there. and the burning effect you've added makes the poster looks more gorgeous. the only thing i don't really like is the 'fire' font. will tell you more about this on font section.
themes: [ 13 / 15 ] most perfect. the colors you used really show 'who-is-the-goddess-of-fire'. the picture is showing her supernatural power which means really suit well with the themes. what annoys me is the character's expression. it's more into angst face than showing the powerful fire. hm, you should choose a pic like: having a 'sturdy & elegant' body gesture. (like katniss everdeen on catching fire, for example or another tough woman.) the picture you used is way too 'princessy'. (what is princessy. lmao. is that even a word. -bricked-) hope you got what i meant.
coloring: [ 20 / 20 ] full points. nothing to correct. just a little addition, maybe the yellow color on the top side would be better if turned into a dark black than yellow. but it's not something big, still beauty with yellow. goodjob!♡
technique: [ 23 / 25 ] your blending technique is awesome. the colors have blended beautifully, neat, and smooth. and your cutting technique is amazing. i don't see any uncropped part on the character's picture. your special effect is the one i really love. the burning face is one of many interested part on this poster. however, there are a few things you need to improve. look at this picture:
look at the part i've circled. her hand is the only part that being burned until black. look at the other part of her body. there's no any burned part which burned until that scorched. if you want to make a scorched effect, you should expand the scorched part, not only at her left hand. maybe a bit into her dress. and in my opinion, you shouldn't make her left hand scorched that much. maybe only until half of her arm.
now look at the part i've pointed. there's unseen white color right there. it makes your poster looked like not clear a bit. it's not so annoys the viewer's eyes, but it would be better if you could fix it.
and the last, the goddess looks like too sloping to the left. maybe you could rotate a bit to the right, but it's not a big thing though. other than that, your technique is fabulous♡
resources: [ 8 / 10 ] your texture usings is good already. you placed in a right place. however, the fire you used behind the girl is way too messy. it would be more neat if the fire thing behind her expanded more into the girl's hair (not until clashing her face.) and the wood thing (is that wood or what? lmao, pardon my eyes.) on the top is somehow looks odd and not like burned. if you wanted to use wood thing, you can search a texture that really looks like a wood, or to be exact burned wood. but other than that, your texture usings is amazing♡
typography: [ 7.5 / 15 ] back again to the font choices. the colors you used are good already, the font effect is awesome! i agree with your font choices on 'goddess if' and your credit thing. your font choices at them are showing super natural feelings. but the 'fire' font you used is not matched. in my opinion it's too thin and not clear to be read. my tips is: if you already used a kind of 'handwritten' font, combine it with 'non-handwritten' font or more strong font than handwritten one. or of you still wanted to use a kind of handwritten font, you can use a more solid handwritten. for example: scriptina font. hope you got what i meant.
bonus: [ 4 / 5 ] the originality makes me impressed♡
total points: 84.5 / 100 - adorable♡
tips for you: like i've said before, concentrate with font choices, i'm sure your graphics will be more beautiful if you used a right font:D hope this review helps you.
