The lacking of CnC today is..Horrible.

To start with. The signature is monotone, basically just one color. It's boring and un-inspiring. Use gradients and some fantasy. Or photofilters, turn the saturation wheel differently on some layers(would suck but atleast something).

Blending is meh. Some C4D'S are ontop of the render layer, but that's about it. I don't see any particular lightning blending or fractal blending either for that account. There are some fractals on the render but where they are there should be some C4D's too.

There is no focal if you look at it in terms of sharpening/bluring. The only thing that tells the render is a focal is the bright colors of it, but there is absolute no indication whatsoever of agood job using blur/sharpen tool and make the image get a nice blending when it comes to that. Good tags need that.

Lack of a clear flow. Some of the C4D's seem to have some kind of flow that goes upwards down-left on the right side of the tag, but that's it.

No border? I think it'd cut some decent end to the frames of this tag. A thick black border on the top and bottom side of the tag would look nice i think.

So ok, what's good about this tag? Well it's over average i guess.

Edit:

Let me provide some tutorials and wish you goodluck in your GFX career :).

Skorm!! You should've waited for my wall of text:|

OT: I always grade tags using the following:

1. Background
2. Render placement
3. BLENDING
4. Lighting
5. Flow
6. Coloring and effects
7. Depth
8. Focal
9. Contrast and overall tone
10. Action

Yeah, that much. Now first background sucks, until you master c4d use, don't use as bg, I recommend using a stock as bg till you can use c4d well.
Well render placement is ok, a little too centralized though.
No blending at all, work on your blending.
Lighting is not bad, could be better though.
Others has been pointed out by skorm, except for the last one, it means what is going on in your tag, in this case its still, and empty. Overall I give this tag a 2.5/5 but I see you becoming a badass if you KIUxd
