    Mebe starting a scetchbook would be better.

    The post is a little too "asking for it" putting it in the lounge.

    Looks cool but Photoshop did the most of what's going on there, Placing text and blotting some brushes ain't exactly an art so there's not much to crit.

    I would the raise the possibility that one should learn to read before one posts on a forum that s/he isn't familiar with.

    Basically what zaorr said.

    It's all kind of too messy, the black blotches are blocking things out and seem excessive; it feels like the piece needs to be mirrored with the guns on the same horizontal line or at least an equal space from the edges, the colour of the text is too solid and there is a huge blank space in the centre which is probably where the focus should really be.

    Wrongful thread locations aside, it would be a splendid idea for you to start a sketchbook! Also, be sure to upload any and all traditional work you may have. I do hope that photoshop isn't your one and only medium.

    Paint splattering can acheive an effective graphic look, however in this case I'm afraid you've failed at successfully acheiving that. Also, for some of those graphic effects to may want to look into using illustrator, rather than PS, and also study graphitti art a bit for inspiration in terms of composition and such.
