damnn, i've been looking at that topic for ages and didnt press submit.

Not bad, not bad at all. You're definitely improving a lot, the background/effects on the Ike one are a big step in the right direction.

 

 

 

Keep at it. :thumbup:

These are sort of going in the 'dark grungy' category (or at least dark)

They looks nice, but this isn't much visible evidence of blending.

Another one, with the same sort of bg as the new link and ike ones.

 

 

 

 

I quite like it, your thoughts?

That last sig is so close to perfect! Just add some more blending through foreground FX, great sig though, my favourite one you've ever done!

Could someone possibly elaborate on foreground FX?

 

 

 

I've already added two smudge layers plus two 'Wind' layers. I believe all are set to overlay... And then two gradient map layers over everything.

Put a c4d on like overlay or something OVERLAPPING the render (on a layer above) so that the render has something in front of it :)

I don't know much about art, but this one is absolutely awesome!

 

Thanks Skully! :D

 

 

 

Here's a new one (yet another clone trooper)

 

That sig is hawt....

 

MOUNTAIN DEW FTW

 

 

 

EDIT:

 

 

Abstract or not? idk.
