 Damn photoshop won't do smooth corners. |
| http://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=131697 I'll update my graphics through this thread~~~ and some other show case; You guys can see what my style is... u.u~~ I don't use C4Ds, or Brush much. They all look too artificial... >_>... THough, I use techbrush sometimes... |

| i love it great depth and lighting i like the septa one better |
| Guys, I want to see all your nice new siggies, its not fair to hide them. |
|
| I really like the first one *_* |
SixFlags said: Guys, I want to see all your nice new siggies, its not fair to hide them. They look great SixFlags. Need more work on depth and typography but over all nice. Man, it's been a while since I've contributed in here >_< Must do it soon. |
| thanks for the feedback guys! as a lesson: I'm trying to push my Typo skils a bit ^^ -> http://xpnze.deviantart.com/art/Typography-Tutorial-90551186 a sig can look so good with the right Text (especially the "Thinker" one) *_* Meri said: Man, it's been a while since I've contributed in here >_< Must do it soon. I'm really looking forward to it :) |

SixFlags said: Ohohoho, awesome stuff going on there. First and second ones are awesome, I'm not a big fan of the text on the third, and I don't really like the last one.Guys, I want to see all your nice new siggies, its not fair to hide them. |
| I'm still trying to get the hang out of Photoshop. |
| Zuly did you only used brushes to make the flowers? It matches the watercolour style real nice. I've read some Stuff about the Distort function in Photoshop and its such a nice and easy tool to work with. Its really surprising what just a klick can cause decent effects. If anyone is interested, here are the Renders (taken from PlanetRenders.net) |
|
| ^Yup, only brushes in there. I will add some lighting and my name whenever I figure out where to put them. |

| Meri, wow a Hamlet theme ^^ the scenery in the back looks nice and mysterious, and the render simply looks: o.O It may look even better if you either highlight the lightsources in the Background on the right and left more with a white brush (blending mode on overlay) or the dark areas with a black brush. But thats just my humble opinion. Zuly, can't see the first one, but the second one looks nice too. |
|
| Meri, I think the effects are very nice, but the text could use some work. It's too big for my taste, and I don't think it should be blurred. anyway, new one for me: |
| Meri: I definetly like v3! Shio_: Its so nice what you can make using the smudge tool. |
|
| hi there Just saw that there is a gfx club on mal..and well, since i love to play with ps in my freetime i tought i present some of my sigs here. still pretty much a beginner so feel free to critisize. ;)      |
| Razzhem - your sigs are nice and some effects are awesome, especially the Kallen one. Meri - thanks ^^ I wanted it to be flashy but bright colors didn't suit the render, so it turned out into a dark one. And I'm definetly going to check out your site. here are two new, the first one is based on a tutorial  tutorial -> I hope it can help with only looking at the pictures too  |
|
| I checked out the site, its awesome! I saved at least 20 tutorials and lots of stocks and theres still a lot more to browse. ^^ And not to mention the signatures of all the members there, so talented! |
|
| Havnt Done any photoshop In a LONG TIME soo heres one |
 |
Made this one over the last weekend original pic It's Morrigan from Dragon Age, in case you missed that :) @AniiFreakk looks different. not my kinda thing really. there is composition, but lighting and depth is questionable to say at least. kiu |
| Man i haven't added one in months so here had a little trouble with the flow on this not my best  this is my favorite one iv done  |

| Hey ^.^ First time here :o3          epic fail :D |
| I'm new to this gfx things though i'll try best! Here's one that i made :D |
| @wtevans flow is messy, but the blend is good. also need more work on shading & lighting. @Lieed I like your style, those nice soft colors. you need to work on depth more. @19leon95 nice colors as well but the lighting is a bit dodgy and the bg looks flat. kiu guys ^^ I thought I post 2 of my latest sotw entries on one gfx site :3  -won me a 1st place :3 -  -will see how this goes - |
| Thought I post the "original" for my sig here. This one has an extra gradient map, and it's cropped coz the 600x140 version was way too big for its own good. Dunno if cropping messed up the flow or not. Anyway, I was experimenting with smudging and using C4Ds as light effects  |
| Here's another one i made ^^ this time i got help with a tut :D so please tell me you opinion ~! it would help me alot :D  -used smudging for the background and splatter brushes ~ |

| @Meri: Was it on sigresource? Its been a while since I checked that site. Love the first one, congrats on the first place! On the second I'm not too fond of the left part of the sig, but the C4D's are melted very well with the render. @Kavakond:  the one you use now looks much better than the one with the gradient, overall it looks much more vivid, and the explosive background just looks great.@leon95: Overall it looks very nice, but what I notice is that exaclty the focal points are kind of empty, I'm sure if you add more effects or a nice typography there, it would look even more badass. |

Thanks ... I'm not really good on typhography ~ i tried putting though it looks bad .. Maybe a little more practice will do ^^ |
| ok, here are the works of the past weeks from my blog: they are all only brushwork, but they were a welcomed break from learning.    (strictly followed this tutorial: http://psd.tutsplus.com/tutorials/designing-tutorials/dynamic-recessed-watercolor-typography-in-photoshop/) but deciced not to enter the mini challenge with itSigressource had a post limit? oO they seem to have removed it, at least the Tutorial section is accessible. @leon95: me neither.. ^^ but thats the right spirit! |

| Thank you SixFlags, and I really love that first two ^ When it comes to gfx you are my role model |
| Hey i made another xD I followed some tips on putting text on sigs xD here's what i got :D  Oh yeah ^_^ i got inspired by the border i saw in the mini challenge and i don't know who made it so if any one of you guys made it then please don't get mad ^^ @sixflags: YEAH~! i'll keep trying xD so watch out for me ^_^ |
19leon95Apr 23, 2010 7:18 PM
| Thank you Kvakond <3 @leon95: http://xpnze.deviantart.com/art/Typography-Tutorial-90551186 this tutorial was on the last page in this thread, I hope it helps you New brush sets, new test runs: and 2 with C4D's c&c always appreciated ^^ |

| ^ I like the colors in the first very much but..well..it's empty The 3rd and 4th are really really nice. If I had to nitpick i'm not fond of the typography in the 4th and that black shape left to her seems out of place |
| thank you for your thoughts! I considered scripting the first one, but since I didn't, I'll just say that it is an "artistic way of expressing the contrast with the brushes" *knee-slap* I will try to improve working with a stock image and of course typo. |
|
| I wanted to ask btw, do you have a place where you usually get your brushes? |
| I mostly get them from Deviantart, since most of the brushes provided in gfx forums can be found there too. Excellent brushes are for example from these users: Recently I'm looking up tutorials on http://psd.tutsplus.com/, they sometimes also have links to nice brushes, for example the watercolor ones in the floristic tutorial above. |
|
| I'm new to MAL forums, thought I'd share some here. Warning, tag wall may take a while to load :) |
