Sorry, but it doesn't do anything for me. It is too busy, too much going on.
I don't care for his half eaten face. I don't get his posture - is he in pain about his poor old face?
The box (?) behind his legs blends with his pants too much.
The "rays of sun" don't make any sense - they can only come from ONE direction, not several at the same time.

I dont really know the answers to them questions because i just make what i see. Although the "rays of sun" are not "rays of sun" as he is not a sun.

Thanks for the feedback :)

It's certainly seems very original. I like the colors & tones very much. Parts of it are intriguing - I liked the concept of a denim angel when I first looked, but then I realized I had zero idea what I was looking at. Self-exploding angel? Angel in anguish? Devil angel? I also thought those were sun rays, which confused me. The amount of detail in some bits that seem less important (e.g., the background & side bits) seems to contrast with the lack of detail in the front bottom where I have trouble with the dark box.

hmm I like the image, but the half eaten face doesnt work well. I like the rays, they add to it a lot. The picture may have been more efficient had the box behind him been moved or maybe even if he had been standing on it. I'm not sure just some thoughts tho. The half eaten face is the only thing I actually dislike, the rest of the stuff is just minor improvements you could make.

Jay, first I want to say I like the concept, what you have here is kinda in the middle of the story so might create some confusion as to what, when, how and why. Maybe as part of a group, possibility a book cover it might work, but it needs a story.
Even in fantasy work the rules of light must be followed, is the light emanating from the church, the man, the wings? As it is right now it seems the light starts somewhere between the church and the angel and goes in 2 directions, outward and inward.
The chest damage looks good, but the face damage looks a little off. On the face I doesn̢۪t look like scull, it looks like tissue so should not be white, but red like the chest, also the nose looks wrong from the angle the damage looks to have came from.
There is someone on the pews on the right oblivious to everything going on, err, it might be best to just clone him out IMO.

All in all I like the color the texture, and the concept.

Thanks for all the comments. Perhaps i will make it into a series. Although when i do things like this they are JUST experiments. Ways to improve and ways to showcase what i can do.
All feedback goes towards making me better.

The face gets me, too......the look of anguish/anger on a non-damaged face would be more effective for me. Though the box doesn't trouble me, I would have liked to have seen floor in front of him to give the image more depth. Oddly, having seen the larger image, the smaller one seems less busy and easier to keep the focus on the.....angel?

Love the rays.....
