Shiny Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 Here is a grunge sig i did. I personally quite like it, one of my better sigs. Tell me what needs improving, the good bits, the bad and I'll probably change it. Here it is.... I personally quite like it, but i'd like you guys opinion.

re4p3r1 Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 i give it 9/10 the effects are nice but only thing would be the render isnt the best quality maybe try sharpening it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronnie_kloet Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 I think the render is too dark in comparison with the bg, although this gives some contrast and makes the signature less boring. Maybe try blending it more on the left side, it's blended right at the right side, but the left doesnt seem to have blending. I like it other than the things mentioned above :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VjuliusT Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 It's a bit dark in my opinion. I think you did a pretty decent job blending the render in to the background, the left side is somewhat boring as it's so much space there. Overall it's a pretty decent signature. Things that you could improve: Better smudging/blending. Lighter? the signature is very dark. The text (It's "Eeky"). Use a C4D for to fill up the empty space? Try making smaller signatures as it's a lot easier. It could use some lightning (Brush white with a low opacity brush on a new layer). Colours, well it's chicken yellow and the background should be darker then the render, hard on this render as it's a lot of black parts on it. Better render placement and resize? Use the rule of thirds (I'm worse than you on that), you placed it on 3/4. Bad flow, you used a motion blur to the left right? the flow of the render is "<^" 1 word sharpen. Bold parts should be looked over, the others are optional really, depends on the render/background etc. Bolded parts should be looked over.

Jopie211 Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 Looks quite ok, blending and effects are decent and the background isn't too bad (although I'm not a big fan of the colour). The render is indeed quite dark, making it hard to see some of the details on it. Also, the text definitely needs changing, both the placement and the font just don't go with the rest of the image. Overall, not a bad job. pixel avvy by me deviantART Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chazimcgee Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 hmm i like the colours but it seems a bit too bland, spicen it up with a c4d that flows or something. Use some more blending like brushwork and smudgework :) I like your style though, maybe add some grudge brushes in the background?

VjuliusT Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 XD, I think he wanted me to give him tips or something. I could pm you the settings I used for my brushing (It's a remix of Charlies brushing (Chaz)). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking of lightning up the render and adding a C4D. The problem is...I'm no good with C4D's + I have to go to school #-o Any suggestions?

VjuliusT Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 Oh forgot you use the Gimp :?. Try changing the opacity and layer modes when you use them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shiny Posted June 16, 2008 Author Share Posted June 16, 2008 No matter. I'll try changing the opacity, and add some blending and a C4D when i get home. Any recommendations for the C4D? I'll go on planetrenders when i get back... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
