    Text needs work, not in the corner, ever. And the colours. Depth and effects are spot on though ;].

    I like it but it needs a name change. Watchman is the name of a comic series and I completely was expecting something related to that instead of ODSTs. I'd suggest a name but I am stumped.

    Yeah, it's actually not a series but a stand alone graphic novel. And it's actually Watchmen. So... yeah. I pretty much just focused on effects and depth in this one.

    Heh, yes, you really should read it, it's one of the best stories on morality and human nature of all time. Really incredible.

    The depth works, but i'm just not feeling it. All your other sigs are magnifiscent, but i look at this and i wouldn't think it was made by you. The stock looks offset and its kind of tacky and amateur, both texts have bad effects and although the background may have been tricky to make from scratch, it's so far-gone from the simple gradients and textural backgrounds that are normally used it just looks like something wierd pulled from google.

    Yeah, that's the effect of around 12 C4Ds mixed in with fractal stocks set to various different modes and a whole lot of ripple filter. 32 layer piece.

    Damn that's a lot of C4Ds...
    Good outcome though.

    I don't like how the render is placed on the far right. Move it to the left a bit.

    Text in upper-left is bad bad bad.
    'Watchman' text is average but there are still other better fonts.

    Nice depth.
    Where's the light source? Can't seem to find any.

    i like the concept of it but the odst isn't blended in to well and to me the transition from the effects to the city is to quick and to much of a color change for me but i like the style it just needs a few adjustments im my opinion
