I see some pretty nice work there :)
IMO all of your signatures lacked flow, maybe a concept you could focus on a little more?
Only a few encompass the importance of depth (which looks awesome) but all the rest lack the depth.
IMO your lighting is nice, but could be a lot better. For example the one with the light stand could be more intesive. (still looks nice though)
You have some nice smudges but it all looks the same to me but with different focals and bgs being smudged.
Lastly your compo and coloring could use some work because besides the halo one, the signatures lack some solid coloring. (Colors are kinda bland and unappealing)

Overall you have some nice work but like you know designing is all about learning :) So keep it up

Infinite: I made a Smudging tutorial earlier this year... if I can find it I'll link you to it.

Perfect: I don't work to make flow, depth or lighting overly obvious in my tags. I'd rather just make the art and let the technicalities come out however much they want to, naturally. I know that's not the smartest, and it won't make me Pro, but I don't care about rankings and such anymore. I'm content to just make art I love and share it. I ask for CnC to improve, obviously, but I honestly don't care to change my style to do it.

Thanks anyway, I will take a lot of what you said into account. =)

I agree 100%... the only thing is that i think you should work on your overall smudging a bit more. Its not bad, but its not super great either. take your time with the smudging and use slow varied smudge strokes instead of long ones that dont have much flow. other than that, it looks good.
