    Yes, my first signature. Essentially this is a representation of the "Bullseye" emblem which I use to trademark all of my Halo Forged maps. I used a screenshot of the monitor form I took using the green backdrop in Forge Island which made my job a whole lot easier, thank you 343. Then I changed the colour of the eyepiece to illustrate a white dot and other sources of lighting to match that of the orange ring, which supposedly illustrates the monitor is projecting it holographically.

    not bad, you could add some "hologram" effects to the projection though, make it more static-y and transparent

    Maybe more detailing on the orange ring as well for a better projection effect as they're never solid colours as they're seethrough a lot of the time.

    Very simple, but pretty good for a first sig. Nice one, you should try using some of the member's tutorials here (click link)

    I like the look just a few tweeks that might improve it.

    Feedback:
    On the orange ring I would place a darker orange boarder, real thin like 1-2 pixels maybe on the inside as well. (stroke option)
    I like the font choice but it blends into the background and is kinda hard to read. I'd hate to say it but a 1 pixel stroke in black would make it pop more or a drop shadow.
    Another trick is duplicate the text layer make it really dark , and drop it back behind a original text layer. Then select Move tool (V) with dark text layer selected, hit arrow keys on keyboard to move dark layer pixel by pixel. a small offset can cause a lot of change.

    I like the sig overall, especially considering it's your first.
    Take care
