First Signature in PS {Edit #2}

[SirHartlar]

I have been experimenting for a while, but this is my first finished product I am pleased with. I used this tutorial, the part I struggled most with was the background. Please leave c/c and give me tips on how to improve.

 

 

 

 

 

 

EDIT:

 

I feel this one is better in terms of blending in the render but I feel the background is too plain? So far the only method I can find for colouring the BG is by pasting a lot of the render and blurring or just by overlaying a single colour. Any good beginner tuts are appreciated as well, I've learnt quite a lot of things just from a few basic ones I've been sent.

Thats better than my first try was, keep following the tuts i sent you! :thumbsup:

It looks like an abstact piece (background) with a render pasted, duplicated, and blured. The render should look like it's part of the signature.

So how do I go about doing that exactly?

You need to have the render apear to flow in and out of the surroundings, an easy way to do this is to put it in-between the layers that make up your background, duplicate it and blend in the lower layer if neccisary (don't go overboard on the blending though) and removing anything on top of the render that is too distracting.

I've been experimenting more since the last one, my latest attempt is up. It is a bit tall I know, only just realised. #-o
