I have to agree with the comment above, the wetness on the body does not look natural at all. The rain is nicely done. I would say try removing the wetness and posting the result with just the rain. I think it would actually look fantastic

I... okay i like it... the water does not look natural at all, and feels like transparent runny gelatin thrown at the body, but then again it's almost impossible to draw "wetness" well, and this representation has a visual appeal none the less. The problem with wetness is that a naked wet body and a naked dry body appear mostly the same, it's the air and clothing that draw the sense of wetness. Unless... special care is taken when taking a photograph to make the "wetness" stand out. Usually this is done in several ways: either the water has some milk added to give it an unnatural translucence, or very little water is actually used so that it does not form a "transparent film" on the body as water usually does, or a substitute is used. Usually this substitute is either runny gelatin for photography or actual transparent lubricant for movies. Sometimes people are actually lubed but very thinly and water is poured over the now water repellant body to stand out. In this specific case the downpour we're seeing cannot have done so few little trickles which is why of my comment about the "runny gelatin" above. But i still like it.
