I've been messing around with two different styles this week. Spattery, render sig: Blended stock sig: Also, I can apply both techniques to either type, render or stock.
I don't like the size of the first. It seems to large. Also I don't like the lack of a border on the first one, it seems empty without it. I like the effects but the right side looking like wood is extremely random. I would personally have it about this size(not exact, it was a rush job): but that's just me. No comment on the other one. Doesn't look anywhere near as good.
