Doom Fan art Critique

I'm pretty much done with this piece but wanted to get any input on final touches. The biggest challenge was seperating the shapes of all the characters so they didn't just all meld together.
So I guess I'm wondering if I could work on any areas as far as lights and shadows and where the eye goes when you're viewing the piece.

Had a quick mess around with this, hope you don't mind.

You have a nice spiral composition, and have tried cropping it to accentuate that shape, and make the main character less centrally placed.
Lightened it overall to help separate shapes, also made an extra pass over the cyclops guy in the background as he was blending into those either side of him.
Lastly that blue on the left is really distracting, to the point where it is drawing the eye more than the green in the armoured figure.

Just my thoughts, I'm no expert, but I hope I've been useful.

Hey thanks man! I actually didn't notice the spiral all that much but now that you mention I think cropping isn't such a bad idea! and I agree about the blue light, that was one of my biggest battles was trying to make light sources that didn't fight with eachother. Your feedback was great regardless, thank you!

Glad I could help @drk_knight777. I have an piece needing critique under "sci fi character" on this thread if you have the time.
