Coolio, good job.

Only things that I can point out is that the rippled effects could be blended in better by lovering the opacity on the layers.

I can't seem to find a light source on the sig, you need one in the upper right.

Glad you liked the tut ^u^

A question Rad, as a tut maker myself and PS newbie, how do you get the reflection under the sig at the top?

Copy the sig, flip it vertical and position it under the other sig. Then use a soft erase brush and erase with a low opacity, try to get a natural fade out.

Thanks man

great tut as always.
heres my outcome:

Reheheally good :D

The things that I can point out is:

You have some text left on him that can be removed by smudging, and you got some white fragments left on his left chin.

A better placement for your text would be right side of his collar, so just move it up a bit. and changing the font to something more basic would also help.

Other than that it's looking good, great job!

fixed most of what you said. heres v2.

May not be as good btw I hate to do exactly what the tut is :L

Edit: I'ma go try your other tuts too ;D

Text has to go hehe :D

You got a nice flow and a space touch to it, me like. The background at the left is a tad over burned/contrasted. Not liking those line brushes and the black thing in the bottom right corner.

You might want to remove the c4d on his neck and smudge away some of the text from him too ;)

Other than those thing it's pretty neat, gj!

Looking forward to see the outcomes from my other tuts then ^u^

There I fixed it a Bit ;D

Also This Guy is from Fort Minor right?
Edit: Nvm he is I just Dl'ed the Resource pack :D
I liked that Banned :L Never made new music tho...

Yup Fort Minor is dope!

Looks much better but no need for the V2 text and the text at Mike is still there :)

Good Job!

I offer my greatest apologies if this comes under resurecting an old thread but I wanted to try this out! Great tutorial. :)

This is based over a grime rap artist I quite like, Chip, aka Chipmunk!

A tutorial is never too old to bump and I'm glad to hear that you liked it.

I think your outcome is pretty cool, you have a good sense of flow and depth.
What I would suggest is to remove the text, it's distracting and doesn't add anything to the sig.
I'd say to sharpen Chip more, to make him evenly sharp with the highway lines.
The colors are a bit dull and dark, you could crank up the vibrance and contrast more, even play around with the "selective color" adjustment, to make the colors come alive.

I'm happy to see that you wanted to revive my old tut, you did great :encouragement:

Thank you for the feedback :) your feedback seemed very logical so I had another play around with it; the sig seems much more lively now!
