    Link himself doesn't look very depthy. Maybe it's just the stock, idk.
    I'm no expert.

    The text is creative, but Link's depth is so screwed up.

    I thought of something else. :)
    I think there's a bit too much green. I c wut u did thar with it, but maybe if you used the blue from his back it wouldn't be so...green?
    Maybe that's just me.

    yea i understand. thats what i thought when i saw the finished one but im working on something else and didnt really want to go back and change it.

    Also i know his depth is messed up. To be honest I don't know what happened on that part so... yea.

    Looks like you applied perspective, then blurred some parts to create depth. Unfortunately, the perspective contradicts the already hit-and-miss blurring.

    I'd say try again, this time without perspective.

    1. When you are resizing an image in photoshop, hold shift as you drag down one of the corners. This will resize the image according to the proportions.

    2. Chill with the sharpening. If your image needs any sharpening, just go to Filter>Sharpen>Sharpen or Filter>Sharpen>Sharpen Edges. Only do this once, you will only need to use it once. There is another way to sharpen also, go to Filter>Other>High Pass, click okay. Put the layer's blending mode to soft light and lower the opacity.

    3. Try to work on your blending. The focal is supposed to stand out, but that doesn't necessarily mean that it's supposed to float in middle of nowhere. Try to make so it seems that the focal belongs there.

    4. The text is not bad, but it needs to be placed closer to the focal.

    5. There is some extra space over the focal which is unnecessary, the more empty spaces you have in your signature, the more bland it will look.

    6. Work on the colors, the signature is too monotone- green. Sometimes monotone signatures don't look bad, but there is just too much green for me to tolerate.

    Wish you the very best on your photoshop journey!
