Which version you think is better?

How can I improve?

Back ground is okay..
Fix the text, the render, and take the brush from his face o-O?

The background is nice, but try using different images to see what you like best.
Also fix up the render & make it look a little cleaner.

Good job with it though.

well, i prefer v2
but u need to put the render on the foreground, not the background, put the background in the background and not in the foreground and blend the render in with the background and make it stand out.

the text is pretty good and so's the background but you need more effects

Hey, Thanks for the comments. Ya i know. I wanted to try clipping mask. It was my first time. :D.

Np.
If your going to clipping mask something try and do it on some splatter, text, or if it looks right, you could do a repeat kind of sig.
But Un-Sharpen your background and text a bit.

Looks ok. Should get that thing out of his face. I would give it a 6/10.

Version 1 is unsharpened :).

I think v1 is more better,
nice job
:)

Myself i think v2. Because v1 looks blury

It's good, 7/10. But it's way better then I could ever do, I suck at this kind of stuff.

id say 5/10
its a bit hard to see
and i'd say you'll do better =)

The backround rocks, I Think you need to fix your render tho =P Maybe put your render above the backround? not behind it? Lolz

Why cover his face?

v2 is better
