top right corner not done yet?

and the dog pictures texture may be shining through too much,

I like how the whole pictures is united in termes of colour.
However, the use of different styles of illustrations seems strange to me (ex. line art at the bottom right, paintings on most of the rest).
I agree concerning the dogs : he has got a lot of details, which are adding to the details of the background - the sum of them is maybe difficult to read.

Who runs like that? this guy must be seriously bow-legged and reverse-pigeon-toed. His left leg (right from our view) needs to be more straightened in-line with his thigh. Unless he's not running, but instead doing some whacky Austin Powers type of dance move, in which case carry on.

Also, below his right elbow (left from our view) it needs to be darkened to match the other side at least, because there is some distracting rubbish below it. I'd say keep the gradient flowing into the darkness over the dog's face.

(his right thigh, on our left, needs some touching up)

phantoms has it the left leg(and more correctly the foot) are at a seriously painful angle

hey perhaps I run like that jerks! haha jokes...its true I was trying to get a spiderman/austin powers pose of just in the middle of just twisting but if it looks like akward running to you then its most likely gonna look like that to everybosy else so I guess I gotta revise.
As for the different media. I wanted to show different styls I work in and I was trying to blend it like a collage of arts but the problem seems that it isn't collage(ish) enuff to pull of mixing media it looks too thrown together. Again, will play with that.
As for the top corner I was going to add something and the title on top.
Thanks guys

so here's the final step to this. Its an attempt at making a melting pot of various portfolio pieces. I tried to mock it up like a movie poster with some drew struzan influence. My only fear is that it may be a little to cluttered or flashy. Let me know any thought you might have. Thanks

thats rilly somethin'!
I love it. I love how you have incorporated sketched and rendered pieces. The colours are perfect!
It's also easy to go over-the-top on something like this, but you have just completed it perfectly!

One crit I have is the dragon in the centre, the colours just do not fit in with the rest of the image.

Excellent work ;)
