So cute!

Really great chop! Though you are going to get a spanking for the masking around the paw that's holding the stem... spankity spank spank spank Great Idea

Well you still got 5 talent points.. hehehe.. better than nothing hehehe Very very cute!

pretty cool.. but the kite perspective is out.
person's shadow should be infront of her.
overall too bright for a sun-rise or sun-set feel, should be darker
just a suggestion.

hehehe Where is ANOTZE? hehehe (I'm just kidding) Always be aware when you do a "Flip" on a photo with words on it. Everything goes backwards. (It's an easy enough fix and I can see by your talent that there is no need to tell you how to fix it) Flip just the words not the whole Windmill. It's great facing back into the image.
I kind of like the lighting and the overall effect. Reminds me of Don Quixote's (Man of La Mancha) battle with the Windmills... the Sesame Street Version. You'll get a spanking for reversing the shadow but I can tell you have an excellent imagination.

Might be simpler to just clone out the word, but definitely fix the shadow. The light source is behind the girl.

Bottom edge of foreground gun grip is too sharp & choppy. The elbow of the left arm looks unnatural (right angle, fur is flat) and there's too much clone stutter on the shirt & the shadows on the shirt are inconsistent. The left part of the chain should be going under the shirt. The teeth look fake...the gem has no reflectivity...it looks like what it is...a 3D render..

I've got to agree with CMYK46 about the jem and the elbow... If you take the time to stop taking comments so personally and focus on what needs improving then you might actually find that his comments are valid! CMYK46 was just as quick to point things out in the past as he is now! I've had his critique and so have others, and to be honest we are better for it!
Whatever running argument you have needs to stop IMHO!

he's wearing a wife-beater LOLOL giggle snort (I know that's not PC but it's true LOL)
