forsaken

It's all true.. i have no excuse.. well, maybe just this.. I was bored - so sue me, the metallic text is from a tutorial from http://idigitalemotion.com.

It's smooth and clean, imo the text doesn't fit in at all, takes away from the sleekness of it all.

Title says it all, yet again.. :x Actually a part of a wp i made, but that's another story. Rate / Criticise / etc..

Nads, my opinion. try to add more colour to it, by that i mean maybe more saturation, or the addition of a second colour (say blue for the lesser parts, and yellow or something for the main bright lights). it just looks too monotonous in my opinion, but hey, the most important thing is if you like, if you do, don't let my opinion stray you from your own unique style.

If the to be was intentionally meant to not fit in, then ignore this comment, if not, well, work on the 'to be' text, because it doesn't fit in imo.

Er, its been done before, and frankly, all its resulted in is having a lot of people having bruised egos, lots of whinging, and very little gain.

Good. Bad? Neither, tediously boring (hah), and it just shows the creative ability of most of the tip-it'ers.. or lack there of, not dissing anyone out there, but seriously, find your own style, dont go with the flow, be different, be new, maybe you'll be the person who sets the trends for the new generation of lacklustre artists.

been a long time since i made anything, and your post was the first thats caught my interest in a long time, if you want japanese symbols - could ya find some for me? im having a hard time finding any.. decent looking ones.

at second glance, im getting the feeling that its lacking slightly, it feels a bit too dark, and .. needs a bit more content?

much too sharp, try to make it less harsh on the eyes, pretty decent - dont know about the text though.

Nice brushing, now work on your typography.

decent sig, linework is, as said, repetitive, but you need to add something more to it to make it unique, just a render + name doesn't really make it stand out.

not really, take a good look at your own sig! (sorry couldn't resist, saw an opening, took it)

im guessing you used photoshop, and did the cape on another layer? and then lowered the brush's opacity down to get the shading effect, don't do that, because then you can see the blue (rune) under it, and that isn't right. just manually go and find a lighter red shade, then use it over it, trust me.

from what i can see, you've been using a brush, and not a 1pixel pencil, thats not how your supposed t o do it, pixel sigs mean you draw it pixel by pixel.

yeah, you got the message through alright.. im personally sick of seeing 8 out of 10 threads being pixel sig threads, partially the reason i haven't been posting much as of lately.

new one.

um, for lack of better explanation, ill use an example. you know with your average abstract bg, how some people use the hue/saturation option to change it from say yellow to blue? instead of using color balance? thats what the dragon looks like to me, like its tinted sort of.

hm, lets see, save it with better quality next time. the bg is as said by jeppoz, too dark, and id like to add that there isn't a real focal point. the 2d is a bit random and doesn't fit in, because usually the 2d revolves around the focal point, whereas you don't really have one. and with the 2d your going for, its one of those ' fill up the whole bg with it, or don't do it at all ' ones, because it just doesn't look good elsewise, the font doesn't really fit in either i reckon. I know there are good points in your work - just that im prone to be very negative.

i would not advise playing mu global, unless you want to get hacked as soon as you get a decent piece of armor.

"Programming is like sex: one mistake and you have to support it for the rest of your life." "Never assume, for it makes an [wagon] out of U and ME." "Don't steal. The government hates competition." "Money talks...but all mine ever says is good-bye."

that would be due to imagehackus being down i believe.

You know you've been playing too long when you go to sleep, wake up and its dark outside already.

It's pretty good i guess, but to me it's just another one of those generic abstracts.. \:
