2.5/5 550k I gave you a bonus for it being your first sig, and you have a good understanding of what you need to do. However, various elements need some refinement.
Composition: You usually don't want things square in the middle. You can, but in this case (with all that empty space), I think you could either move it over off center or enlarge the render to where the head is somewhat cut off from the top. I also think you could have blended the render and background more. It feels more like the render is sitting on top of the background instead of being a cohesive piece.
Render: Your render is high quality, but it lacks a swap and the cut needs to be refined (see around the players right arm).
Background: I like the split paint look you have going for it, but I also find the wood's color and the white splotches draw the eye away from the render. Perhaps a darker color or black overlay on low opacity?
Text: I like the idea of the text and how it repeats itself in the purple. Very nice touch. It is also very easy to read. That said, I think you should have varied up the font some and perhaps added some texture to it as well. It is also stacked a tad oddly, meaning it could have been made more compact.
