A bit.. of a return

been wanting to do something with photoshop again for a while. Finally got a bit of inspiration, from the oddest of places a girl (craziness that a girl I know, especially a girl at my school would be interested in sigs, at least it is to me) So, I figured wouldn't hurt to get back in and try some new stuff and of course couldn't hurt with the girl ;)

I'm not a master by any means or anything. It's just been a while since I did anything with it, hence the return part. This forum didn't know that though, so figured I'd say something incase people thought I was claiming I was amazing or something.

Tried a smudging tut for this one. Got a better understanding of smudging kind of. Yea, I know. not a hard concept to begin with but w/e.

Different tutorial. Waaay different technique, imo. Varied away from the tutorial after a bit because.. well it asked for waaay too many C4D's. Jeez.

^supposed to give off a kind of vibe. I think I might like V1 more, but I like the vibe I from V2. Although you might only understand it if you played Kingdom Hearts 2 lol

CnC appreciated. Always looking to improve :)

Bump. Looking for some CnC and things to improve on of course. Looking to possibly start another sig sometime soon. :)

In the top sig loose the pinkish colour it dosnt work well, other than that nice, welldone

Smudging isn't that easy,least to me..lol
i would use diff size brushes all through to make interesting flow

keep an eye on ur text placement and try some effects on it to jazz it up

Just keep practicing diff things and making stuff..all that practice pays off ;)
