(Shouldn't this go in showcase?) It's looks good, but could be a lot better. First off, I don't like those black lines; they're too sharp. The lighting and flow is off, and the render doesn't blend. The text placement is taking away from the flow and ultimately detracting the focal. The BG is interesting though. It kinda looks like sand dunes. Overall: 5/10

I'm still learning flow, but people keep saying NOT to put renders in the center [unless you have a good flow that sprays out from the render]. I haven't tried this myself yet, but try smudging out your flow first, then make some C4D clipping masks on the smudging. See if that helps coordinate your flow. .

For your flow, you want everything to follow in a general direction. Your effects right now are going all over the place -- since the effects look like they are going in more of a northwest direction, however, you want to rotate as much as you can and get your effects to fit that flow. Do some more erasing in the background. The black lines are, as said, choppy. Blend the render using gradient maps, etc. (Layer -> New Adjustment Layer -> Gradient Map) and set the layer to Overlay, etc. and play with the opacity. Your text is actually not that bad, but it can also be rotated to fit the flow. Also, play around with different text styles, such as putting it on Overlay... but from what I remember before, you've definitely gotten better. I haven't been here for a while
