Shiny Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 Okay kids... here is the deal. I'm going to post my first two or three signatures, my last made signature and a signature I liked and one no one else liked, and some others along the way as a tag maker. I want to see how much all of you have improved over time and stuff? Sounds good? I'll go.... My first tag ever, with my old runescape name. I love the brushes. My third try, on the same day I believe as the one above. I always liked this tag, even though the text and border and crop aren't great. No one else liked it :P This was the point where I started to really develop I think And my last made tag. Rangers for teh lolz. C/C? Anyone else, what has your tag journey been like? I'd be especially keen to see yours, Littleboy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nadril Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 Lets see what I can find: Submitted: December 16, 2003 Back when I first started to learn how to use brushes. Back then it was taboo to use premade brushes so I used the defaults in photoshop instead. Submitted: January 7, 2004 I think this was my big turning point as an artist. Before than I had really been struggling and just could not get out of my slump I was in. It didn't help that I still wasn't liked that much back then by a lot of the really good artists (due to my first couple of signatures and not understanding various "rules"). Still it was a 3D render I did in bryce and edited with PS7. [hide=][/hide]Submitted: February 22, 2004 One of my early attempts of Terragen. This was back when I felt every thing needed a title card on it and I loved duplicate layer > Guassian blur > overlay on everything. [hide=][/hide]Submitted: May 31, 2004 My first real attempt at photography. [hide=][/hide]Submitted: June 13, 2004 An early attempt at a "terraspace" scene. This and a few other images got me into a lot of trouble with "MrFrenzy" on dA back in the day due to using his stock planets without giving credit. Later on though we became pretty good friends. [hide=][/hide]Submitted: June 27, 2004 Wallpaper when I found out how to make the cool "orb-ish" effect. DId a ton of emotes. Also the slight jab at a TIF user who hated the :roll: emote. [hide=][/hide]Submitted: July 31, 2005 This is my real big "turn around" piece for terragen by far. Started to sharpen the image which produced a much better look. (Heh man, this was almost 5 years ago) [hide=][/hide]Submitted: November 13, 2005 First real attempt in doing some sort of 3D modeling from scratch. Lol. [hide=][/hide]Submitted: September 18, 2009 And, of course, my most recent Terragen (2) render just to put it into perspective. All and all I've been going about this thing for over 8 years now. Sadly I don't really have any signatures from my first year or so but they were really awful lol. It's also kind of funny that I did and learned so many different "styles" of digital art throughout the years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dsavi Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 Oh wow. There is so much junk in my images folder, a lot of stuff that I haven't showed anyone. I think I'll post some of it here. Ehh. Hmm. I liked the Foo Fighters I guess.I'm not sure with whom I collab'd, but the outcome was... Different.This I still like. I made a crappy smudge sig and DH made it awesome.Not sure where this came from. Those are some of the 2485489340 brushes I downloaded from dA.This was done in Blender, it was New Year's Eve, I was bored. I'm not much of a party animal.Everything you see here I did myself, which isn't saying much. Blender as usual.This was a draft of TIFBlack v2. I'm actually pretty happy with it."Frost_energy"- i.e. I thought it sounded somewhat cool and abstract enough to slap on.:uhh:I found this in my Windows Pictures folder, as "inconventional.png". Just like the spelling suggests, it's not what you'd normally see. Or want to see.I made this for my brother. All brushes, of course. That's all I knew.This one I did while doing a report on Jainism. You might say that it represents my brain exploding, trying to understand the Wikipedia article late at night. One of the only I made in PS.My very first sig, made in GIMP. :|Moar brushes!Only smudge sig I've made in PS. Note: I made a script to add [ img] tags to the URL of each picture faster than I uploaded them lol. Here's the script: <?php $messedup = "http://img202.imageshack.us/img202/625/c4dsig1.png http://img42.imageshack.us/img42/9036/collabsig.png http://img693.imageshack.us/img693/5927/dsavidhcollab.png http://img291.imageshack.us/img291/2856/dsavix42.png http://img192.imageshack.us/img192/1950/first3drender.png http://img707.imageshack.us/img707/7586/firstrender.png http://img522.imageshack.us/img522/2328/forumstyle.png http://img180.imageshack.us/img180/98/frostenergy.png http://img185.imageshack.us/img185/7446/grunge2.png http://img43.imageshack.us/img43/1002/inconventional.png http://img510.imageshack.us/img510/5082/n1h0k3r.png http://img28.imageshack.us/img28/7403/sig1v4copy1.png http://img202.imageshack.us/img202/8468/siggy52211.png http://img338.imageshack.us/img338/7955/superdraft.png"; $notmessedup = explode("\n", $messedup); foreach ($notmessedup as $key => $value) { echo "[img=" . $value .

DementedHero Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 I wish I still had my oldest sigs, back from the start of the previous version of this forum, Scapeboard. Found what might be my starting point in vector art/illustration: (this was from some book I think, I tried to redraw a picture from it) Then a bit later, this came: And it eventually turned into stuff like this: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 Can't actually remember when I made most of my stuff, but I'll post the oldest I can find to the newest. Older moving on a bit; and a few more :P I might post some photography later, too. 2257AD.TUMBLR.COM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solartide Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 First: Lawlz. Third: Some time in the middle, someone wanted a banner for their website made: And I haven't seriously tried to make any signatures lately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skully Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 Hmm, I haven't really improved much compared to most of you guys. Firsts: (Bou if you read this, I still hate you for still using that) Here are where I improved a little bit, started to get somewhere. My most recent/better sigs, haven't been so active lately so they may seem old. Oh and my few LPs, from oldest to newest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevepole Posted May 19, 2010 Share Posted May 19, 2010 I don't have any of my older stuff to share. Just kind of lost it all over the years switching from a PC to a Mac then just recently cleaning pictures folder got rid of the last of my old work. Barely have any of my recent stuff to, its kind of a shame to be honest. I'll try digging around to see what I can find. ps. I put a couple of your guys stuff in hide tags edit: Found some searching these forums. 20042005 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
