2-2 sfifer, that is really good. i think you should work on the text, but otherwise i really love the vibe and style of the sig. great job. yellowman, tooo small! i cant really see whats going on

Spiderman render sigs FTW

I agree with Heat Stroke. I don't really like mountainmans text. Drop ripple just isn't a good effect in a render sig. Sfifers sig is pretty cool, I just don't like the black outlining of the text. Its kind of smudged looking (because of the softness level) and doesnt really go with the rest of the sig. 2-0 Sfifer

Haha alright Thanks!! I think I should bring the focal out a little more, but I'm glad you think so. I got the color from running a certain plugin a few times but I forget what it's called. I'll post when I can get on PDN.

not really dark, but idk how to describe it. i basically meant that the focal is too hard to see

A similer style sig, but it's toooo dark.

Well the focal isn't really centered in this sig, it's slightly to the left Yeah it wasn't the best spidy render... I want to make a batman sig, but he pretty much wears just black and gray... But sometimes yellow. I like renders that have a dominant color, though Spiderman is pretty much red AND blue... Wateva!

Thanks! The tutorial I made is for a very different style sig, more of a smudgy sig. I could make a tutorial on the Spiderman sig......

i like the lambo sig the way it is, but i think you should drag the border layer up a bit, it seems as though it's not black because it was effected by another layer. the general sig is really cool too, but i don't think he text works very well here.

i agree. what do you want to do, chrisco? if you don't want to do the text sigs, i really don't care what we do.

well, i think we should use c4ds and nebulas, that i'd like more

I didn't understand a word of that, but my question for you is: Why would you go from ps to pdn?!? :tard2:

as for an idea for a topic, how about we make a sig with text as the main focus? like, you have to use your username as your main focus, but it can be open ended so that you can add what ever else, like nebulas, c4ds, fractals, stocks, or you could make it 100% pdn and go for a 3D look.

i would prefer batman

surprised i tied for first! great job everyone!

Hope I'm not over-doing it (too much) with the color scheme. How is it? I think that the eyes are a tad bright, I should fix that. I used one nebula and one c4d here.

thanks. it's a really cool render. i got it from planetrenders.

Thanks! Maybe it's because my render was blue with a lot of black on it? I'm not sure... I'll continue with the sig later on. Thanks for the tutorial! I never would of known what Alpha Displacement was lol

(It's BIG) Hidden Content: I don't really know what to call that...... it's not an image manipulation because I used a render, but wateva! Followed Heat Stroke's tutorial, thanks Heat! Turned into a sig, of course

thanks chrisco! btw.... really can't believe the sig battles are this close!

Thanks, I agree.

Without Red-Yellow Gradient Map: With Red-Yellow Gradient Map: It didnt end up the way I wanted it too ...

Another amazing car sig from Heat Stroke! I reallllly like this one. The only thing I don't like is the feathered border. Some parts of the border (particularly the bottom left corner) look feathered and I don't think it looks too good, but I love pretty much everything else! Mattz, the background and text look good, but you should blend him in a little more. His arm and the right part of his body look aliased and it kind of messes it up. A tip I'd have for that is to duplicate the render, run gradiant blocks on the bottom layer (sometimes this doesn't look too good and you have to fragment blur/feather it so it doesnt look too square-ish) and take out an eraser with 1 opacity (PM me if you dont know how) and erase some of the very edges of the top render very lightly so it looks blended in. Again, PM me if that doesn't make sense. Your sig is pretty cool, but I just really love Heat's car sigs! 1-0 Heat Stroke

Neither sig blends the render in well. Julio's sig has stuff over his ford gt render, but the edges arent blended in making it look pasted on. Mattz, you've made good signatures where the background matches the render really well, and I'm not sure how you do it, but you're good at it. Now you should start blending the render in more. For some reason, that same overlay text at an angle with the same font like that always looks goood! 1-0 mattz

well...usually.
