    Wow..thats your 6th?

    My 6th sig was a picture of Yoda with plastic wrap...and crappy gold text lol.

    Nice job for someone with your level of skill.

    But some pointers to help you get better is to try and blend your render in to the sig alittle, makes a whole lot of difference. Use better text colors, black white, or something that is already in the sig.

    Also, add a light source, but keep up the good work dude.

    Maybe make oyur name a little smaller and lace it under the longer text. Also move that one a bit up maybe.
    Colorss are not too bad.
    Blend in the render a bit either with layer masks or a soft eraser.
    Work a little on the bg.
    But really nice job on being your 6th Keep it up^^

    Well, what first strike me is that the render just looks slapped on. and colors do not match really well. You should do some blending to make the bg flow better with the render. Ehhm regarding the text, try not seperating the text all around the sig, cuz its gonna be to messy and focal point is harder to find.

    THe Asal text needs to be changed to a different font IMO. Try a font like..Arial, Eurose works well if ya have it. I never downloaded it yet i have it so i guess it's a default but everyone i talk to doesnt have it :-\.

    The fear the darkness text is good, butIMO it should be moved to where the ASAL is or the ASAl text should be moved to the fear the darkness text. I don't likehaving two spots of text because it makes it your eyes flick back and forth from both of the text and over the render.

    IMO the BG is much better this time, you definetly took the CNC you got last time to heart. HOwever i still don't see much blending. Try to smudge over the render a bit, or you could try using splatter rbusheswith clipping masks...I don't know if you know how to do them though. If you don't i can teach ya.

    You might wanna add a light source. To the left. To do this I think the best way is to:
    create a new layer
    fill it black
    Get out a large (100 px-200px) 0% hardness 80% opacity brush
    Then brush once where you want your light source to be.If you want it colored before your brush use the eye dropper tool and pick up a light color.

    Overall though you seem much better. Keep this up, and keep working at it.

    BTw: i will upload those c4d's to a seperate site, ut I"m not at my computer right now, I'm on my parents so next time I'm on my computer i'll upload them and PM them to you.

    to create those clipping masks just make a new layer and brush with a brush you like, then hide the layer create a new and apply image on it. unhide the layer with the brush on and on the applied image layer pres ctrl+alt+g then move around.

    there ya go if thats to complicated then im a bad teacher cuz its an easy effect.
