Review (first one under the new system, hope I did this right lol):

I think the composition could maybe be helped by some adjustments.  I like the choice of render but having it almost directly in the center and the text right at the bottom of the sig kinda makes it look a bit off.  I'd suggest moving the render so that the face is a bit off center (to the right maybe?) and then making the text a bit smaller, and moving it up a bit and to the opposite side of the sig.  Not sure if you're familiar with the rule of thirds (this guide breaks it down pretty well if you're not) but I think that would be helpful to keep in mind.  It's not that big of an issue though as it would only be a minor suggestion, you don't really NEED to follow the rule of thirds perfectly all the time.  I like the font choice and layout, only suggestion that I'd make is that I'm not personally a fan of the outlines on the "LeGrande" text.  I feel like this could also maybe use some slight lighting adjustments and maybe a minor gradient map to help with blending.

All in all, I think this has a lot of potential and I like the colors you chose.  I'd give this a 7/10.

Review: I love this graphic! The colors match so well, and it all is on there perfectly. It really looks professional, and natural.

I am a big fan of the new reviewing system. I thank you for your review and input on my graphic. While I understand the rule of thirds, I have found, in my close up style renders, that the diagonal method applies to this style better than the "Golden rule" or rule of thirds. It's all good stuff and basics that should be known. I agree with your assessment about the text, I do struggle in that area. Thank you again.
