Timeline of my signature abilities.

[BokkChoi]

Ok, I am going to update this thread every time I make a new sig for myself. The only reason I am making this in the first place is because I want real feedback not just "8/10 lol". I want to be better, and I can take criticism so hit me with your best shot.
CRITICIZE ME PLEASE

This is a timeline of my sigs from oldest style I did to newest styles I am currently doing.

I generally only make sigs of bands/singers I like, I don't care for metallica much.

[Commando Vlaskiyov]

Really awesome actually, any chance on Megadeth for music sigs?

 

[BokkChoi]

Bump for great justice, need for criticism to make me keep making sigs, and for those new sigs.

I am serious about the criticism, hit me hard, I can take it.

 

[arnarbatman]

I'll throw a big post on your later today man about what i think you should improve and such

 

[Tension]

You've gotten a lot better but I'd say your biggest weakness is your use text. It's definitely gotten better though, better than I could do.

 

[arnarbatman]

Im really tired so im not gonna have this too long.

First thing i see in maybe all of your newest signatures is that you try to blend to render too much, and sometimes it has FHS (floating head syndrome) which means that effects are covering the body or you just use his face, thats not good.

You gotta work on your colors man..they are not interesting at all, wayyyy to much brown+grey in it.

I also noticed that you sharpen some of the tags too much,gotta lower the sharpening down, or use the "high pass sharpen" which i just learned, its really useful.

Your text is really bad..if your having hard time using text i suggest you dont use text for your tags, "why having the text if it makes it worse"

I really like how you try to put some flow in everysingle signature you make, keep on doing that, but i also see that your signatures are very.."dirty"? youll probably say its your style, but if you just tried to make it a little bit cleaner and so on, i think it would look better.

I am very lazy today, so im not gonna have this longer, maybe its a little harsh..

-thanks ,gods

 

[BokkChoi]

That's exactly what I was looking for Gods. Thank you. I'll try to make my next sig less grungy and more colorful. The only thing I don't understand is how my text is bad, could you elaborate a bit more?

 

[arnarbatman]

Umm you always have the same font.. and your choosing the wrong colors mostly, its too..how should i say it..its too "bright" like in your current signature, thats a good example, the strong red color is making alot of distraction. understand?
Your placement is fine, but its the font that doenst fit and the coloring of it.

 

[arnarbatman]

So what im saying is..try to make the text "blend" with the background, dont make it stand out.
Im not saying that im the best in making the text look great in signatures, but try to make it blend with it and not to take too much focal or distraction from the piece.

-Thanks, gods, any questions just post here or ask me

Ok, it makes sense, I try to make the text blend, but then I mess around with it, and then I just leave it. Thank you again.

 

[Painbow]

On 25, the opacity on the top line of text might be 5-10% too low
Great job man.....you're far better than I.
And I understand about the messing around with text.
You can have the whole sig plotted out, get finished, and go to put your name on it... then the "Where the heck do I put this?" mode kicks in.
