Really, I love it. I love your use of colours, and you seem to do them well, they each really compliment each other, and its very vibrant and focused.

Ok, I think this is the best sig I have ever made... I haven't done this in a while, but I think this pays off for it

behold the awesomeness!

Prince Deity, your sig is way too monochromatic for me, and the color of purple doesn't seem to work with the colors of Oni Link. And Oni Link himself doesn't well placed, or he just isn't a good render to use.

hmmm, I dont like it much. The render is blened at the wrong bits. I think I would look better without Oni Link. However I like the vertical scanlines



I know it needs a border, but meh :/

not one of my best, but I still like it for some reason.

DSL: Love the colors, and I think it does the iPod commercial justice. ;D However, I don't really like how the transformer is kinda erased at the right side; maybe..."un-erase" it? Iunno. However, very nice looking. The lines are a nice touch, and the text is brilliant on the signature.

Prince Diety: srsly use a different picture. Every signature I've seen from you has Oni Link. :/ The background is a huge monochrome of purple, and it just seems like a mess of C4D's. It's also kinda messy, and there's no depth or focus whatsoever.

Rantick: I don't like it at all, sorry. Also somewhat monochromatic, and the effects go over the Pokemon. No real focal (the background is sharper than the picture), and depth is completely absent. Text could stand major improvement; do something interesting with it. Not the best, sorry. :/ Maybe try using more than ONE color in your signatures?

The purple/yellow/pink shades look nice, but get that green out of there, or choose a more pastel shade. Try to blend everything more smoothly. I don't really understand the larger image at all - what exactly is he reflecting onto? The texture in the background doesn't fit the scene at all. The curved lines are a bit off and could be aligned more evenly - plus they are too opaque, in my opinion. The way you erased on his right side looks terrible, and the floating object further to the right (the rest of his leg?) doesn't look nice at all either.

I'm not liking the text on the sig. The letters aren't evenly spaced, and the green just looks too bright to me. Shrug.

The background looks like a mess of abstract renders set to different blend modes - correct me if I'm wrong. It looks like there are effects covering Link, and the ones surrounding him are too bright, perhaps soften them a bit.

IRONMAN!

That movie was win. I like this sig. However, the effects make Ironman look like he's wearing a wrinkled sheet around him, which is tacky. The effects are cool overall, though. 4.5/5. Good job, Hyrule. :]

*waits for one more comment so she can post a sig*

It's not splatter. It's mostly soft brushes smudged and blurred and then brushes all around...and a texture.

The floor.

The way you erased on his right side looks terrible, and the floating object further to the right (the rest of his leg?) doesn't look nice at all either.

It's shadows, it's brushed over in black, and yes, it's the rest of his leg, it's pretty much connected.

Text was meant that way, I don't know why.

Hyrule: It's too blurry, monochromatic and uneven. There's badly placed renders (C4Ds) and the way the lighting worked out is bad. The smudging is kinda awkward and off flow. Not so great :\

Yay.



I like how this one came out. One of my best sigs, I hope?

The picture of Wolf is poor quality. It's very blurry, and I don't know how you managed to do that if you got it from the official site. The space theme is okay, but it's lost in all of the random effects you've just dumped over the top. There's hardly any decent flow going on and almost all of the focus is taken off of Wolf. The border doesn't suit the piece, I think it'd be better off with a 1 pixel black border all around, and the text is bland and stands out in a bad way.

How is the render blurry? It looks clear to me. :/

And is it just me, or are you following me everywhere I go in the forum?

I'm making criticism. Isn't that what this thread is for? There are very few active threads at this time of day, and this happens to be one of them. Why would I bother "following" you on the internet?

It's very blurry. Ask someone else if you don't believe me. You should use the sharpen tool/filter.

I don't find it blurry at all.

And you're following me because it seems you appear in every thread I've been posting in. Stop it.
