Please give honest CnC, even if you think it sucks.

Actually it's not all that bad. The lighting is on key effects are decent but could be improved on. Only nitpick is the text other than that keep it up.

Your lighting is better than mine by a long shot. This definitely sets a mood.

Thank you guys.

Text is, I think, my biggest flaw.

As a general tip for text, don't leave it plain old horizontally. Work it in with the flow of your piece. At least I find that almost always helps a tag out.
Pretty good, like the colors, like the effects, good lighting, maybe do a little more with it though, maybe a texture or something for the bg, the top left part in particular feels kind of flat.

I think the text generally fits the mood of the game,the sig,and the font if he changed it it would look like just a GFX signature with a render thrown on top of it.

It's a pretty good sig actually.
My only problem with it really is that there seems to be a lack of things going on in the foreground.
Other than that, I can't find a problem with as the background is interesting and your lighting is good.
Keep it up. :)

the lighting isnt bad but its a bit strong. The effects are nice but dont stand out enough, make your effects pop more by sharpening them and using c4ds and other techniques.

The render looks like its maybe a bit oversharpened, im not sure though, but look into that. Also i think the render is to contrasting whilst the bg and effects arnt contrasting enough. You want your sig to really pop out at the view, this one is a bit dull. Use Adjustment layers to work with your brightness, contrast, and colors. I would suggest some selective color adjusts, and a b/w grad map set to luminosity.

for the text, i would "AND MEN" under and slightly to the right of "OF DEVILS"

kiu the work, hope this helps :)

It's good i really like it i think the colours and everything work really well, however i do agree the text isn't great..

Ah, about the contrast on the render, his neck was completely shadowed in the original image. I tried to fix it once, but that ended badly. I guess the only way to fix it would have been to add contrast in the background, like Kritez said.

So for my next signature, work on focus and contrast, and spend more time with the text?
