Ok guys, how does my current Sig look for a beginner on a small canvas?

Killing me with the 2+ render rule. -_- Sorry.

And I do like the bg, Ricky, I really like those vines (?) in the top right corner.

Yeah I made them with brushes

Pras try changing the opacity of the extra render, and add some stuff above it.

You guys are a hard crowd to please. :lol:
Let me see what I can do (man, this small canvas thing is HARD).

EDIT: Here is a small change. I really don't like it though:

It's better IMO. It gets a 7.5 now. :] (opposed to a 6)

I personally don't like the random waves behind her, but yeah, thanks for the feedback.

When did Wiired help you? Lol.

#2 is better...but too many renders. if you made it less wide, you could just use the DK render. BG is very boring as well. 6/10

Btw, Demon, there's still some white on yoshi...try cutting off one pixel all around him.

I need the renders, its my Strikers team. I'll try and update the BG. Maybe with some brushes?
Im not too good with the whole blur/lighting/pen tool crap

A sprite sig?? Is it your first??

Comments: Nice choice of colors, good outer glow in the render, great contast and lightings, good choice of C4Ds, and good blends in the text, it's a great work

9.5/10

Wow...#1. No contest.

Gym. Maybe there's something wrong with me, but I don't like it. I mean the main background (more like foreground in a way, it looks like it's in front of the render...) looks good, but the huge empty half-bubble around the render looks really weird/awkward. And for me, the sig is WAY too big for such a small render. Make the text a little more noticeable, and I mean LITTLE; the text looks good other than that. Sorry. 8/10

Thanks for the comments, guys. This was my first "sprite sig" as they're known around PlanetRenders and I'm surprised it turned out well at all.

If I could point out the biggest flaw (IMO) for future reference, it would be the size of the actual dimensions of the sig, compared to the size of the render...it's just way too small for that big sig. I think it would look good if it was smaller tbth. Making it a bit smaller would also force that huge empty bubble out as well...

Just my biggest opinion on how to improve the sig.

 

[Gymdawg]

I redid it. I didn't want to resize it (too much work) so I tried to fill in the bubble a little.

Question:
When you have a render where the background is black. How do you cut it out. Lol Im unsure because the Magic Wand tool desn't seem to work on Black Backgrounded Renders.

I always use the Filter >> Extract technique to remove anything from the background. Use "Smart High-lighting" and you can end up with great cuts.
