How is it a tile? Use more colors for the sky and ground unless you want that effect. Work more on the individual objects and then piece them together so know what your doing without the distraction of everything else.

You can see lines in between the different shades in the sky and ground, you need to make it more blended.

Nice. The guys legs look to short compared to the rest of him. I guess hes standing in the corpses instead of on them but it looks a little strange. Maybe take the outline off the blood, it doesn't look like it's actually on the ground but a weird jellyfish floating above. The gray on the shirt looks like it should be shadow but its probably dirt, maybe give him a consistent shadow then put grime on him.

That heap of zombie-things could probably loose the black lines. And less vibrant colors too!
Sketch this out a few times and look at a lot of of references (http://www.horrorsociety.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/evil_dead_3.jpg).

Did a quick edit, softened those black lines with a dark brown, changed the pose a little, scribbled on the moon and clouds.

oh yea i see what your saying, dulling it out makes it so much more realistic
