Second one doesn't even look real.

Dodge & Burn tools are your friend, and so is the puppet warp tool.

everyone is such a critic :P thanks for the tips but considering that was done 9months after i started Photoshop i think that is impressive... for only having the program for 9 months that is xD

that's their job other wise we'd just kiss ass and say "GREAT JOB, AMAZING!"

besides you need some humility to keep you from being cocky :P

You should take more pride in the work you produce, even if you say you didn't put any effort into it. That 1st sig looks absolutly terrible for 3 years of practice. Even if you did not put any effort into it the sig, it should at least have basic blending or at least having the background the same shade and colour as the render. I remember reading this in a book, The fastest way to improve is to accept that you suck and then you identify the ways you may improve.

9 months is a long time I think it could have been better.

Reading the thread from start to finish it seems like just an argument over who knows better from certain people

Respect eachother and crits and everyone will improve from reading one/anothers ideas and everyones reasoning for using certain things.

The 1st pic should go back to the drawing board, and the 2nd pic is bizzare, the hands look Very unreal + the face cracking just looks out of place,

Practice practice practice is all i can say.

I just call'em as I see'em.

I thank you all for your Crit i am not trying to make it seem like i am know more or anything like that, but 9 months for that 2nd one is good for me as it is hard for me to learn something new, i know it is not great and I know it needs improvement, the 1st one was just some random stuff which if i had not been bored probaly would have actually tried on thank you all for your opinions and all though either way
