I recently made a thumbnail for a Sci-Fi game I’m working on.
It’s supposed to be some characters in front of an explosion.
What can I improve?

the background the people are well made but the problem comes when they are put together.in other words they do not feel realistic.if u need help putting multiple rigs in a single GFX tell me I will help you!

The reason why this looks off is the lack of shadows casting in front the avatars. The explosion would’ve been emitting light, therefore shadows would’ve been showing.

they look like they are not there and they just added in photoshop, that’s what looks weird

Thanks for that,
for now I rendered each of them individually for the sake of my PC. 
I’ll try to get each of them into position in one render next time.

Yeah I see why that looks off.
I made the background within studio and couldn’t figure out how to render shadows along with the rigs while in Blender, since the floor wasn’t part of the scene.
I’m going to attempt to import the small section of the map into Blender to cast shadows onto the floor and whatnot.
I’ll post an updated version if I figure it out.

You could just select the parts you want to be in the gfx and export them.And then go to blender import them to it.Also it should be obj in both roblox as well as blender.

I have tried, but the Diamond Plate texture on the floor does not import along with the parts and it does not create a seperate texture.
I’ll keep looking into it.

The characters don’t fit in, and there is a pantsless woman. Maybe you should make all of this in the same render, instead of (I assume) editing them in. And please give her pants so you aren’t banned.
She was wearing pants, however they were short and orange which made them difficult to see.
I remade the thumbnail to remove the character in question.
Remade version includes shadows for avatars and silhouettes the first avatar against the bright light in the background.

Looks better now! You may want to add some fire or explosion effects. You can find tutorials for that on YouTube.

Well this is good, as I have started GFX myself this look pro compared to my stuff. but this is a good thumbnail. just add a cool title and your well away.
for this you need to download the diamond texture to blender after that you will be able to do it
really good does not look edited 
well done bro
The faces are pretty generic. You should just stick with normal roblox faces.
Maybe practice more on the lighting and your Photo editing skills if you ask me. why? well :
The lighting looks like it came straight from Roblox Studio and not your traditional render
and for the photo editing you might need to fill the canvas in because this one looks a bit barebones and you might need a bit more compositing to control the color around. overall 7/10 you tried.
My man, I see you everywhere even if I’m not notified. i guess thats why your famous
