XX Blivion: #1-First of all, you are getting much better. For some simple steps, move the render to the left a little to cover up some of the bright white on the BG. Secondly, add a light source to increase the feeling the render was on the BG already. Good text, but place it a little higher. Having text in the corner brings a little too much attention away from the focal. Smudging on the BG is good, but smudge the persons "wings" a little outwards. Just to make it blend a little more.
You didnt post anything. You just said how bout it or something. You didnt state anything to be critiqued.
Paranormal: #1-There is some pretty good smudging here, but the tan color in the middle is a little too solid. Its kind of like he's against a solid object instead of a smudged BG. The gradient is kind of bad because the blur on the right seems like a cut-out of the BG. Its very easy to see the focal, and thats a good thing. But I think you should have blurred the edges of the render a little. This will add greatly to the smudged arms. Text is OK, but nothing special. Try placing the sub-text FF-XII In smaller letters below your name.
Quick question Norlinsky, for the technical area of the signature (right side), did you use brushes and if so could you link me that brush pack? Thanks.
TBH, I think this is a pretty bad thread idea - we all have our own thread ideas and I think you aren't THAT experienced to be critiquing other people's work. Sorry dude....
Stoj, I think it's more about the idea of releasing your sig to the public before it's completely done. Like, you want to know if people like it. And I trust .Core because he makes some very nice sigs.
stoj is right sigs arent like maps. if you show someone and ask for advice its not really your work anymore
OK, heres the thing Stoj. There are alot of people on this site who aren't that great at sigs. I thought I'd make this thread in order to help them get better. If the pros need some critique, then so be it. At no point did I state "I was the best and Im gonna show these noobs whats up" Also, I can't do all these reviews myself. And I am currently looking for a partner. EDIT: Mashellis, maximum of 2 at a time please.
