Nick, you always seem to take step back when doing your smudge tags like this D;.
Remember that....Out tag or whatver that you needed a rendered image for way back when? that was a step in the right way. The tags too red, the focal too center. In all honesty, it could work with a smaller canvas size((impacts was about right)) or a larger one with more room for focal effects.
The smudging and blending are.... amateurish and below your skill level at best. Think beginner tuts? It'd be fine for a background, if you had layered more effects over it. The smudge needs to way smoother with the texture effectively worked in for a successful grunge tag. Move the comp...right and create a flow instead of having an all over mess.
Lighting is odd too due to the fact you hightled half of him and the other half is dark. Which can work but not if the tag is really overall the same lightness. Blending is over done. Just pick a shoulder or one side, not the whole torso. The black blob is ugly on the right.
Shadowing needs work, try a softer brush with various layer modes or opacites and try to create a bigger sense of depth. Lighting needs to flow more over the focal instead of just stopping. Text...Different position. I like to look around the shoulders and don't place it unless I'm entirely happy with it.
Just push yourself. I'm going to be quite frank otherwise.
