New Vertical Signature

Ive taken into account alot of input i have received such as borders, blending and light. I have made this sig with those things in mind.

if someone can point me to a good typography tutorial that would be immensely helpful also, thanks for taking a look

version 2 - i redefined the light source and increased the border from 4px to 6px

That's strange that your border is still doing this. This is possibly your best so far... I'd try adding a light source though.

i added a light source to the top right of the sig, but i think i accidentally blended it too much, i set it to i think soft light about 68% opacity, and yeah that is a straight 4px solid black border there buddy. perhaps its how im saving the image?

Are you putting the stroke as inside?

no stroke is set at center

The C4Ds look LQ, also there doesn't seem to be any flow. Try blending the render in more with the effects and bg. Also try working on the text. kiu

i may remake one similar as per the suggestion to blend the fractal more but that wont be till tomarrow probably

Well to not have such LQ c4ds etc, you just need to find a pack that doesnt have LQ ones. lol

And try blending the the focal to not stand out so much by adding textures etc.
