Dang it! This seems to be my worst sig ever. sad.gif I think it's my best. The main problem seems to be the lighting on the render. I'll see what I can do.

Oh, and Michael, I used a 20 px feather when I was blending the render.

I think it's your best too, or at least high up there. I just would have gone with a better render.

What like render? Speaking of renders, I'll modify this one a little bit so that it isn't so dark. Be back in a few.

hmmm 20px 10-15 would have suit ited more and then do a oval shape around the whole left arm.

its not your worse yet its just need more work me and johnny usually spend time on ours min 15-20 max 1 year, also when brushing do the alternative of black and white brushes in a span of 8-10 layers, to get the depth going and to give you an idea how to work the brushes in and when your confindent enough trim it down to 3 4 laers of brushing and then alterniated with black and white on those layers where it almost looks grey in color.

[1]No. I tried 10 px - 15 px. Too much blending for me.

[2]Apparently it is my worst. You gave me the lowest rating you've ever given me.

[3]How will making different brushing give it more depth?

[4]If I trim it down, then what's the point of the 8 - 10 layers?

All right, I edited the original doom sig. Here's the new one:

What do you think?

[1] No.

[2] Max 1 year? Highly unlikely, but my minimum is a lot higher than 20 minutes. Nowadays it's closer to 30-40 mins minimum.

[3] Good advice, you should take it yourself. tongue.gif

[4] Grey? Nah...it shouldn't look grey. It should be crisp black and white, for the most part.

[1] I know what you mean, but sometimes "too much" can look good. I've seen sigs that are so -bad- that they look really really good, if you get what I mean. But it's a rare thing. O.o

[2] Scales change. I might give one sig a 6 and then one of the same caliber an 8 some other time. I tend to lose track of my scale sometimes.

[3] Not different, but -more-. It's because if you just do one layer of brushing, it looks pretty flat, whereas if you go white black white black white black you get more and more...whatever the word is. Just try it, you'll see what he means.

[4] I think he meant start doing a bunch of layers, and when you get better in designing you can use less layers...not sure though...that part confused me.

The new one looks a bit better, nice job.

I know I spend half an hour or more on most everything I do in Photoshop. I also waste about twenty minutes finding out what to do in the first place.

Also, there's no way Michael can have that motto. I am the queen of sugary chocolate cereals, most especially Cocoa Puffs ohmy.gif

[1] Just go with the flow. Unless you dunno about the flow, then you won't know where you're going to go with the flow that you're flowing with what you dunno. smile.gif

[2] Cocoa Puffs suck. Three cheers for Lucky Charms! Hip hip hooray!

Half a frickin' hour?! I spend like 5 minutes on mine, and there are no thinking. I just do whatever looks good. :-/ Go with the flow, but if you flow too much, you might end up on a waterfall, and that's no good.
