Yup, a lot better.

Giving it a try, but I'm obviously not promising anything. :wink: What kind of axe would you like him to be holding?

The Spiderman signature looks great. Only thing I can see, maybe some of the background parts are a bit too sharp. I don't suggest blurring them, but maybe just don't sharpen them. Other than that, :thumbsup:.

Nah I don't mind, thanks for pointing that out. I'll wait for Bloodveld to give his opinion before changing it though. :wink:

Yeah, it's a shame it got lost in the rollback. I do still have my entry though, and I think most people will have theirs saved onto their computer as well, so we shouldn't have too much trouble starting this up again.

Like said before, I really like the concept and the first one, but I don't like how one of the hands is just cut off because of the two frames in the second one. It just doesn't work for me.

Haha ok, I'll make him lose a few pounds. EDIT: I'd say it's finished, any changes? :

Just a bit of an update on the avvy (don't mind the watermarks, they're going). Obviously still pretty much WIP, some areas still need refining. Let me know what you think.

I'd be willing to give it a try, but we really need more details (colours, dimensions, style, font, etc...).

A lot better. :thumbup:

Well it's not looking bad so far, but the cape could use some work. I think the main problems are the position of the skill icon on it (it's a bit too low, needs to be higher up), and the way it curves round. I imagine the end of the skillcape (that randomly seems to be floating in the air right now) should be hanging down more, it doesn't really look like it's made of fabric. Other than that, looks pretty nice. :thumbup:

Ugh you didn't do anything then. Agreed. It's just an image with some black brushing/texture and terrible text added. You'll have to do quite a lot more than that.

Nah you're not, I can see it too. Could indeed use some feathering.

^ Nah, I think that would ruin it. V2 looks great. :thumbup:

Don't worry, I'm not that low. :P

With credit? Sounds ok. I've started on the avvy a bit, will give you an update soon. Any preference for background colour (or pattern, scene, whatever)?

Could you give me the link to the original render?

You can do the URL bit yourself, it's just [url=http://url]URL image[/url] As for the sharpening, it probably won't work and will just look terrible, since the quality of the image is really bad.

7/10.

I will rate it, since there wouldn't really be a point in posting if I didn't. 5/10.

Not great in my opinion. The colours of the fractal background (which looks pretty simple and not like you did a lot of work to it, by the way) just don't match those of the render, and the render seems distorted. Always keep the proportions when resizing, otherwise it will just look terribly stretched. You also need to remove some of the fractals from the render, and find a better way to blend. Just randomly putting stuff on top of it isn't going to work. The signature could use a border and better text too, but that's not the biggest of issues. Oh and don't be discouraged by this, the only way to get better is seeing what you could improve on, working on that and practising, practising a lot.

Maybe it's just me, but shouldn't this be in the questions sticky?

Already commented and faved on dA, I really like the simple and clean style. Good job. :mrgreen:

Looks really nice, I like how you used a B&W stock for the background. Only thing I'd change, maybe make the right side a bit more interesting and a bit lighter, there's too much contrast with the left side. But other than that, great job.

Will give the avatar a shot, and maybe the sig too (both will be pixeled), providing that you will use the final picture(s) on here (and keep using it/them for while) and credit me with a little text in your signature area. I'm really sorry I have to be so strict and annoying about this when I haven't even started on your request yet, but I've had some trouble with this previously and I'd just hate having to go through all that again. :( Once again, sorry, but the good news is I'll see what I can come up with for you. :thumbup:
