Were you the one who did a post a while back talking about cover art? If so, could you take a look at the cover art I designed for my fanfic and give me your feedback? Thanks,my friend. I love your blog!
I myself have not authored a post on cover-making, but I have shared them.

As for reviewing your cover, this enters the realm of “review my writing and give me feedback,” which I do not offer.
If you have a Wattpad you should post your cover in the CoverOffs for feedback from other readers/designers. It’s generally best to enter more than one version of your cover so viewers can compare.
That thread appears to be discontinued, but surely there are other places and ways to gain feedback. Instagram or Twitter, for example, might have hashtags for image/cover feedback.
