pipp92 Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 Nice blending. Maybe something in the background? Upon looking at this again, I find that the text is a tad too dark. :? jip the text is too dark and it seems a bit too easy... @jake: looks unfinished but great work ______ new sig comments anyone? edit: another new sig Quote Personal Gallery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pluberus Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 My Newest Sig: It's supposed to be a dynamic sig for Combat Arms. I haven't figured out the dynamic part though. ^^ Hehe @pipp: Good sig - I like it, but maybe brighten/increase contrast just a bit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Notice that the reflection has no lighter parts. It is purposely black & white, for reasons i don't know (even though i did make it). It just is.

The_System Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 Made a federer sig, first go at using c4d's and fractals in a sig. That is quite possibly the most well-blended signature I've ever seen O_____o -- I made this using LJXD's un-photoshop like signature.

LFC4EVER Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 LFC did you use pixelate or is that the font? or did you make it only with the ? No, it was the font. The text is quite simple to make and I did not use outline object even though i could've. Made a federer sig, first go at using c4d's and fractals in a sig. That is quite possibly the most well-blended signature I've ever seen O_____o Thanks, but i dont think it is the best blended, though i like the smudging i did to create red flames out of federer. _____________ Your abstract sig is nice. It looks good and i like the glowy areas in the middle blue bit. A suggestion for you though, it looks like you used line tool and dragged the nubs with the left mouse button to create curves. Use the right mouse button to drag the nubs, so you get nice smooth curves. Quote ☆★☆★Merry Christmas★☆★☆ .::.My Gallery.::.Make Gold Text!.::.

Blooper Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 @Kemaru: Get rid of the scan lines first. Also, move your render towards the middle-left, and add some effects on top, for example, C4Ds / Smudged things on color dodge. Don't put them all over his face though, just towards the bottom. Try to make the effects flow from under his chin towards his ear. Text isn't necessary, but it's always better to go for something simple that won't take your attention away from your focal (his face). Suggestions? Ideas? Criticism? Death threats?

My guess is he did it manually. Well, yeah. I did it manually because i wanted to. Without using a lot of the line tool as i did, just flip the text vertically and use outline object at the correct angle. Make sure the the text isn't 3D when you flip it. Hope it helped. :wink: _______________ what do you think of this new sig ? The Thiery text is good, but i don't really like the Henry text. Its just too simple. Henry blends well with the fractals and the colour scheme fits the render (the blue and the orange on his shirt match the fractals). The fractals give some depth, but it looks as if the flow is all wrong. I'd say the flow is bottom left -> top right, instead of top left -> bottom right. Apply some adjustments on Henry as well, make it seem as if the fractals are coming out of him, so lighting adjustments on Henry will be needed.

LFC4EVER Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 An "OK" attempt at recreating PS's beveled text.

Blooper Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 what do you think of this new sig ? The fractals take away from Henry. Don't make your renders transparent. Try smudging the bottom of his shirt with flow (dab around with a 15 hard brush, 80% strength), and use some C4Ds on color dodge at the bottom. If you're not too lazy (I am ), make a mask with splatter brushes (white on black BG) around the bottom of his shirt to blend him in a bit. Flatten your sig, copy it, undo twice, paste it in a new top layer. Move it around a bit, run alpha mask, and change blend modes.

LFC4EVER Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 Cristiano Ronaldo or Rooney? Nice smudging though. I'd redo the left side though, it doesn't blend too well.

Blooper Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 I don't like the smudging. If you're going to smudge with the paintbrush (the one that comes with the plugin, not : ), drag it like you did, then smudge those 'drags' by dabbing around.

Blooper Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 Depending on the theme of the sig, simple fonts are usually better. Even, it's usually best to use simple fonts for most sigs.
