Johnny 1 Report post Posted July 9, 2005 Okay, instead of doing those tutorials, I've been being kinda lazy lately (playing a lot of dreamcast)...but somehow I still managed to make a bunch of new sigs...X.x Some I'm not too proud of...been in somewhat of a block lately. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. So, rate/comment/criticize. And I'm sorry I've been lazy with the tutorials...I keep forgetting...I'm gonna try to get to them tomorrow. Remind me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cool_Freaker 0 Report post Posted July 9, 2005 Dreamcast ey Johnny? Probably becoming more of a collectors item now right? :D1 - The brushing is alright, but it somehow doesn't work so great with the render - kind of like you *forced* it (the blending). Really don't like the text. It's way too transperant, and even if you wanted the see-through look, I think a different font would have been better. Techy perhaps to match with Megaman? Just something San Serif I guess...Oh and I don't think the dotted lines are that great either, I think a different line might work better - and it probably should be thinner (ie gaps between the parallel lines)2 - Not bad. It's not really outstanding like some of your other sigs - ie it doesn't have that unique quality. Nevertheless, the brushing is tight. Text is alright too, but the J is too similar to the background colour for my tastes. 3 - Sorry Johnny, don't really like this one at all. The font doesn't fit the background (and you also made it semi-transperant). I don't believe the render fits in quite well enough - it probably needs to be bigger to cover more area. The grunge brushing in itself isn't so bad, rather the choice of render, font, and placement of text/pic, which lets it down.4 - Bit monotone... the brushing lacks depth because of this, I guess. Since Vivi is looking to the sky, I think something more "inspirational", rather than attempted gothic look would be better. Personally, I believe some light brushing would have been nice :D5 - Don't like the brushing on this one - colours or the mix of abstract/grunge. The conflicting scan lines don't help it either. Sorry, don't like this one either :P6 - I like this grunge one a lot more. The colours aren't too dark or monotone. The render feels well placed, and blended. Just don't see any text - it just needs some to fill a bit of space - in my opinion.7 - The scanlines conflict too much with the abstract brushing. I would say lower the opacity on them, or remove altogether. Otherwise the brushing looks good, though I don't feel it goes with the Samus render that well, and she feels cut off on the left. Oh, and yeah the text needs fixing - it's small, unreadable, unattractive... yeah - do something about it :DDefinitely not your best bunch Johnny. I think most people get some sort of block sometime - next lot should be better Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Phyre 0 Report post Posted July 9, 2005 I mainly agree with just about everything CFreaker said, but the main things that I want to point out/add/repeat are:1) Those lines kind of ruin the whole thing...and the text just plain...sucks =/2) The 'J' doesn't stand out enough3) Er..dunno...there's just something about the brushing that's bugging me4) Nothing to complain about. Looks good to me :unsure:5) A little bit more blending is needed around the render..and as CFreaker said, it looks like you tried to combine grunge with abstract, but it doesn't look all that great :P6) Nothing to complain here, either. :D7) It seems a little bit to "busy"..and what's with the text? :|Like Freaker said, these aren't your best sigs...but you'll get over the block sooner or later...oi...I need to start making some new sigs....this HL2 one is from November 2004 o_o Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
