Something I've been working for these days, especially the backgorund(s). I'm not sure the beast (gargoyle like) has a place on the pic though... what do u think ?

And again you did a good job.I like the woman in the center, it looks cool with those blue goggles.At least you put some clothes on her this time(not that i complain, but it gets annoying).
But i really can't make out the blurred thing in the background and it distracts from the main thing in the composition..And that "dog" thing next to the character is sooo dark.I can only see a jaw and a pair of red eyes.

EDIT: Is that a snake ???

Thanks for your comment. Well the thing in the back is some sort of ruins... and the creature is more like a gargoyle... its possible the contrast setting of your monitor is too high or maybe the luminosity is too low... but you can see the back of the creature... but most of its features are hidden, as it should be under that light I think.

Not bad, but more game/comic than metal cover.

I like the colors, it would be better without the fading face.

I like it as it's quite dark ! The rain effect is very good, because it seems so realistic. I also like the colors and the background (dark the way I like it) but, as you think yourself, I would not use that beast here. Not that it doesn't look good (you could keep it for another art design maybe) but I would remove it and leave the pic without it, simply. It would fit good for a game...Good job again !

Very good. I like the rain a lot and the character design is awesome, however, not really a metal cover, more of a PS2 or XBOX cover.

M'yes... Reminds me of some manga, or LXG, or something I've seen... But as a pic, quite nice. Remove the "beast" though :/

looks good, i just dont like the goggles. They make it look too comic-like.
