Haha you used the same render.. this looks really nice, i think its better than mine

 

The smudging on the left is really distracting. I understand that you use Gimp and its kind of hard to get good smudging, but it still does take away from the flow. Good job on the text and effects around the hand. 7/10

 

Ya, I like photoshop a whole lot better ;P
