Thanks. And practice makes perfect, I suppose.

Or perfect practice makes perfect.


And there is a skull in my sig? Well I'll be damned.

Yeah, I like the one without the full box better. What would it look like if you moved the picture of sonic to the left slightly, so that his arm came down and covered up the edge of the banner? That way sonic himself becomes the left hand border of the signiture.

thats what i had it do the first time. i didnt really like it as much. like this where you can see the edge behind him gives it more of the appearence he's walking into that box or infront of it. it didnt quite have that feel when you couldnt see where the box started.

What do you guys think about this sig? It's my first abstract piece.

Looks nice but have you tried a shade brighter of blue? Seems too dark with a dark'ish red/black background

Yeah, everyone I've shown it to hates the blue on red, but I can't think of a better way to do the text...do you have any recommendations?

And what sort of "flare" do you think I could add to it? Samething that becomes the focal point, but I'm not sure what. It would be cool if I coudl make one of the dark spiral things 3 dimensional or soemthing.

you know what i'd try... a kinda transparent white text, with a bold, dark red outline.


and flair, somtimes is something simple as putting a line across it, or vertically, or something simple that just adds to it. i think it would be pretty cool to find some sort of picture drawn in graffiti, hehe. but i dunno. usually just takes playing around with untill something works.

The best possible color to use for the text would be green since red and green are complementary colors. There is a chance that you would get a 'Christmasy' look to it if you did that though. If it doesn't work, try using a lighter green or darker green. Or you can use the standard green and alter the shade of red.

I think I'm going to try the white text...or I'll try a black text with a red outline, or visa versa.

And I can't add any renders...I'm wanting this to be very abstract, using only filters and brush's.
