I like it, but I tried to scroll over to see more of the fire from the machine gun, perhaps it could be shorter? That would keep more of the action in the image.

Hey! That looks pretty good! I love it.
Just a few things. The top right doesn't seem to stay consistant with the rest of the picture, the calligraphic stuff showing through that is. Maybe you could soften it up a bit.
Also, I'm just curious about the perspective. Are the two guys standing on like the edge of a building? It seems a little odd...if it was supposed to be outside of some sort, and the landscape more natural...well it just seems a little odd.

On the guy with the gun at the bottom, you may also want to put some more highlights on the (I'm assuming) metal arm. It seems like just a black shadow, and that doesn't really seem to be realistic, or look very good.

Where's the lightsource? I'm trying to find one, but I'm guessing you are using the bulletfire and explosions as one.

I agree with bwkeough that the machine gun should be a little shorter, maybe consider that next time (or if you can) fix it digitally.
Also, on the things hanging off the machine gun (the gray things) you may want to either define them or get rid of them. They don't seem to be helping the image at all.

Sorry if I sound harsh, I really do love it :)

Great job on this, I'm looking forward to seing the others.

I'm a big fan of warhammer 40k and it's art. This looks good, but doesn't have the same archaic/gothic feel of the universe they have created. Take a gander at the rulebook, or daemonhunters codex. Oh, this is nitpicking, but and Adept would never gun such a mundane weapon, that's why they have seritors (by the way, what is the weapon?).

Nice. The "smeary" look is a style huh? I would love to see that pic in a "sharper" style, like Bone's drawings. The concept for the faces is unique.
