as all these things are subjective. The bottom one is always a good subjct. Wolves and a moon how can you go wrong? It is however poorly shopped ( certainly for competition standards ).
I don't mind your effort but the things that put me off it is the model just looks rough and stiff. ( I hope you submitted it without the anti NSFW bra because it looks like an inkblot ;))
The lighting on the model is all to cock compared to the light sources known to viewer the and your edges are a tad hard.
I'm personally into more convincing starfields but that's no way a criticism.
Sorry you asked now aren't you? ;)
Don't sweat it. People have fuck all taste and the only person you should aim to please with your art is yourself.

i shall just kill myself now :D nah i knew mine wasnt fantastic - but i felt the wolf one - well the colours and the lighting look wrong and there is no stars to be found at all. i just feel a bit pissed that this got a vote and mine didnt - then i know this person has made up other ids on a similar forum - so maybe he's just voting for himself.

or you'll be cutting your ears off before you know it.
I'm far from perfect myself and often overlook so many basic things but when asked to look I tend to spot them afterwards. ( it all depends on current levels of jesus juice )
I think the real thing, the more I look at yours is the lighting. It's always best to pick your composition pieces from pictures taken with similar lighting. The rock has a light source above and right. There is an obvious light source to the rear which is casting no shadow and the model has a light source front and left. It's accepted in a studio but for an 'outdoor' scene, well, you got your lanterns all over the place fella ;)
quickest way around things is transform all your pieces on the horizontal before you start so that they all have the light source coming from one general area.
Or ignore me, because I'm not nearly proficient enough with photoshop ( being self taught via the internet ) to lecture anyone.
