A brighter and higher quality render of Beast would look much better. For the text the bevel is a bit over powering and makes it look distorted, plus the lines are a bit uneven and make it look like it was done freehanded.

StruckByLightn
Well finally some feedback.. well Im not the greatest sig maker and i have only been doing it for a month. i need some more expierence and help... but im still working on some..

ThePittman
Well all started someplace so just keep practicing and trying new stuff.

StruckByLightn
Just something I messed with nothing special and probably doesn't look that great but here it is

StruckByLightn
Oops here it is

ThePittman

StruckByLightn
Shadowing from where the outside of the render and the background?
Let me know I still got to find out all the tricks On how to make my sigs look flashy and nice.. pittman you know anywhere else i can find brushes besides deviantart

Vinny Valentine
I don't like any.


Use a Tut.

ThePittman
There are many different places, do a google search on Photoshop Brushes you will find a crap load of stuff on PS.

Let me know I still got to find out all the tricks On how to make my sigs look flashy and nice.. pittman you know anywhere else i can find brushes besides deviantart Here is what I was talking about for the shadow, this is quick and simple version but you get the idea. To make it you copy your render or layer and place it behind the layer then change that layer to solid black. Use the perspective & distort transform and then the gaussian blur to soften the edges then change the layer blend to multiply and opacity to like 60%. This is just a basic shadow so play around with the coloring and different effects.

Also when scaling any images for you work the rule of thumb is go from large to small not small to large. This will help with the pixeling problem that you have with the Spidey background.

StruckByLightn
Thanx Vinny you saying you dont like any of my siggs? thats nice but i only been doing it a month nothing serious.. just something i like to do and comes in handy!
But i kinda get a picture of what ur doing but if you have time pitt put a tut together for me on it with print screens

StruckByLightn

... I meant save it as better quality. The actual Sig is Fine.

StruckByLightn
what do you mean save it at a better quality. remember im still figuring the tricks of the trade to this!

Darth_Hexus
can you make me a sig with the cover of battle for middle earth two, but only put the orc armies charging on one side, then can you put eldar scrolls four one guy standing there about to kill them, this should be easy (sike) unless your as good as you look.

StruckByLightn
Umm Yea I need the renders tho Im not going to go searching... So if you can pm me with the pictures I will see what I can throw together for you! Alright?

StruckByLightn
Recent one I messed with leave some feedback

ThePittman
Originally posted by StruckByLightn

StruckByLightn
Nice I thought that oen looked pretty good Im really starting to get the hold of things on this... but, Yea I did forget to sharpen it... but what do you mean move the text over!

ThePittman
Originally posted by StruckByLightn

Just nudge the text over a bit so that the bottom of the K doesn't touch the render, this is called a tangent line and distracts the eye.

StruckByLightn
Umm its where i tried to do the spiderman but its like an image behind your main render your using and its overlayed or something and kinda makes it like a blended image
i would have to find a sig that has it but im pretty sure u could find one by googling echo sigs
im not to for sure on that tho..
let me know. i will look into as well

ThePittman
Find me an example of the style that you are trying to duplicate and I will see what I can make of it.

StruckByLightn
alright

StruckByLightn
Here is a new one I messed with Let me know what You think PITT!!! My brother asked me to hook him up with one and he gave me some great ideas! So peep it let me know

So peep it let me know Overall pretty good, I like the black & white on this though the hard edges around the face is a bit much, softening them up will help blend. As a design thought if you faded the face in the background a bit more would have given it more of a dramatic feeling to it. You are getting better.

StruckByLightn
Yea but my c4d render was poping out alot more over the face when I tried blending it... So it wouldn't work well. but thanx for the advice...

StruckByLightn
new one let me know whats up on it?

StruckByLightn
