I think you are a very creative soul, but I do think your picture needs work. The horizon line should normally line up with your model's eyes. It feels high and distorts the perspective of everything behind. Also, the 3D posture is nice but she's got a very plastic feel cause she's too shiny and I think you need to use a brush set with a bit of noise and perhaps with the smudge, very slowly tone down the glare.. it will probably also help to smooth out joints such as her fingers which look a bit robotic.
I know this is a fantasy image, but it really helps to keep lighting consistent. The light on the angel is from the left side and quite intense as the shadow falls off quickly , but the dog has very flat lighting.
I do, however, like the spirit and the intention of this work. Obviously an angel breaking a wing is a huge thing and not funny. So I would be curious to see you re-do this but take away the cutesy elements... the rainbow and butterflies are cute but to me, try to make something happy out of a sad event. Truly, this with a huge moon...trees silhouetted with rim light.. very moody lighting (mixture of golden and very blue light) could be amazing and worth the effort.
I hope you don't find this critique too harsh, and I know a lot of time and effort went into this, but I can tell you from personal experience, that good constructive critique will make you a better artist. Hope this helps.
the dog is a little blurry and the dark spaces seem strange, maybe my monitor is brighter than yours. Other than that, I love the ray effect you created, and you combined the elements into a fun image.
