Very nice. You could make the lines or whatever you may call them, a little brighter for lighting purposes, but that would mean that you would need to make the focal stand out more with it.
Very nice for text though.
Overall, it's a pretty decent sig. -

border is not needed for this one :P and text stands out alot o.o but its good.
only suggestion i have is instead of a standard white light source lets make it unique and have a different colored light source?
overall tag is fine -

THanks Blue and guys:) Blue, when you say standard, do you mean like the normal soft brush technique?

here is whats wrong
1. i can tell the bckground is the knight zoomed in and it ruins the sig
2. There is flow, but for some reason it just doesnt bring me into the tag
3. Splatter is not so good and doesnt go with the flow
4. I dislike the colors
5. Border needs to be removed
6. And it really looks like u followed a tutorial in my opinion u need to find your own style -

I like it imo. Very good lighting. You might wanna sharpen the focal a bit more and add some depth to it. It would look so much sexier if you did.

To come to think of it, I recently did the tut that you got from this. You got the same outcome that I pretty much did...

I do not have the tut, I searched through a wide variety of pages on deviantart...I think and I'm not going to search through it for proof, it's not a big deal really.

08-26-2009, 07:56 PMDR809lol Takken is just that good. It may have seem like it came from a tut but we all know well that it didn't.Quote:

I didn't follow a sig tutorial.
My sig making skills compare to people that are good is pretty much middle ranged DR8, but thanks for the vote of confidence:) -

When you go to DeviantArt, search "Tutorial" and come back with 241,000 results, there is bound to be one tutorial that has similar looking outcomes to any signature image anyone creates. There are Millions of tutorials out there on the internet and there is always a chance that two people will produce signature images that look similar.
If Takken said he didn't use a tutorial, then he didn't use a tutorial. Besides, everyone uses a tutorial at some point, so it's not like using a tutorial is an original idea.

Nice Lighting and clipping masks. It does have a look that seems a bit mythical.
I do think it's a bit empty on the left and the edges could be darkened to draw focus into the center, but it's still a very good sig.
