    i like how the background is developing and whats going on in the scene. Less is more for facial details on the finer sex. Her hair could contrast against the bg more.

    with the back ground if you took some of the blue in the sky and but it on a seprate layer over the mountains and the satalite satation an then change the opacity to like 20 or 30 it will help push them back a separate from the fore ground ....i think this is one of the best ideas ive seen for the topic

    This can be fixed immediatley:
    Stretch the canvas to the right and the bottom so that her hair can flow and that his arms can really hang.. otherwise your composition will be cramped. Also show a part of the lightsaber where it stabs the guy in the back to make clear what is happening.

    Parts of the painting get unreadable because it's unlogical or hard to read and this comes from a messy process (painting on white, finishing part for part instead of going from general things to details) because of this there are problems like:
    where is your lightsource?
    why is your hair sometimes flowing in the wind and sometimes hanging down?
    why do you paint on a white canvas, bad idea, distorts colors, ugly white shines through.

    It's much easier for speedpainting to start working on a toned canvas when it doesn't matter if the canvas shines through (grey would've been good for that picture)
    Then you can add strokes to get a general idea of your picture and to see what your composition will be, then you can refine details.. much easier and more control that way.
