Let me know what you think, I am unsure of some bits. Am pleased with how the girl turned out though.

The guy in the hat is a pic of one of the DJ's, Nicky Blackmarket.

any hints on how to improve the layout?

ITS NOT POSSIBLE

I agree with all said above, layout looking much better too. The 1st one was just too much of a eyesore with all those tiny thin strains off the snowflakes then that big hit of color behind them stings your eyes.

I was about to suggest adding in a light source like you just added. That would be cool if you really made it pop out more 3D; it would really draw your eyes quickly their specially if you add the text over him. But, if you plan putting the text over the girl dump that thought. The radial tail lines off the light might be a tad stiff, I'd say soften them a touch.

Love the art here too, just a few points that are messed up. Guess no one wanted to say but that guy's arm on the right were it goes into his elbow is fractured looking.. MEDIC!!
(just need to bring it in more couple other ways will work)

I'd probably move the DJ stand back down and up more into his hand's perspective. Although, that does look better placed there near the girl.

Really love the hair their, that soft feather brush on her first hair flick going back is awesome.

The other thing that is a bit off is the model's hand. It's slightly oversized I believe, didn't really notice cause of that boarder before. Keep the knuckle in align to her hand so it's not so jolted out and cut around the area on the outside of her thumb more were it meets her wrist. With that said, also you should really have a elongated feel in her arm. The stroke below on her arm is way too sharp turned I'd say just give it a little more curves. (rounded feel) This will make her look more sexy!

Probably no one noticed eyeing your hot model there, but I'd fix the guys arm at least.

You're coming a good way into faces now. I'll add on that girls face is very smooth and defined, good job their too. Your digital painting ability is really progressing to pull off such a clean hit of appearance in faces. The guy sort of has some good play intent going on too.

Also I would give the writing and the girl a dropshadow to give it a bit more depth (so you get a nice foreground background thingy)

otherwise what everyone else said great work Jats.
