Also the flame on the Mokou one caught my eye, nicely done. Anyway, good job on all three of the signs.

-cough- what a pro -cough-
Haha level up with less than 1 point , I will try to do more so it can reach a point.. ^^ most of them are vector brushes, and just brush around crazily I used fractals than dust brushes since I think I need to experiment more, though I will still use them for other signs since I still like them a lot. Thanks Rhythm-sama... oh and don't cough, you'll infect me...

Thanks dist-sama, yep I really like those sparkly, flashing ones, is it that girlish? hahaha

oh another coughing person, do you want some medicine too?

Also loved that Mokou sig (though I love the 3 of them) and thanks for the comment Hooves-sama

I didn't say than it was bad, just htan the render was a bit too hidded by the effects's elements. I like most of the work than yoyu made, and I always respect methods than I can't make but this time the great flashing hidded the suject.

BTW, I like the version 2 you made.

Thanks again Patchy, they're awesome .

If you have .psd file of them though and don't mind, could I have it ? I'd like to experiment on the text, maybe change font etc.

Dist, don't be so rash in judging ganbaru, maybe you are the one who's wrong.

Patch you know I like your work and I'm always honest and straight-forward when it comes to Gfx. I know glowy brushes, fractals and C4D are your style and it goes kinda great. I've seen some really good signatures of yours that have flow and depth, but some like the one ganbaru mentioned lack control.

The render was covered in a mess of brushes, there was no focal, no depth, no flow and it was a bit too crowded. But! practice makes perfect, and even though I'm not a pro myself I always advise people to accept criticism since it's meant to be constructive.

Now I really liked those smudge experiments, they look clean and nice. The one with Eirin I would've changed the color a bit under his neck where the ...splotch is [I hope you get what I mean] and an easy way to do it is just pick a color that goes like blue/purple/teal/cyan and brush with a round soft brush using the blending mode on either Screen, Lighten, Color Dodge or maybe Soft light, see what goes. For better blending you can gaussian blur it a tad xD.

As for depth you can darken the sides just like in the Eirin one using burn tool and also blurring the background/sharpening the focal a bit [for minor sharpening I use high pass -1 of the merged copy layer set on soft light]. But ofc you prolly are aware of that, just be careful with the lightning source ^^

I hope you find this useful, you have a lot of potential, otherwise I wouldn't have bothered ^^". I'll ask you to make me a siggie one of these days ;

Take care, Mitt *huuuuuugs*

Also, Claymore ftw!

gahhh don't take that seriously sempai... there's a flaw there I know that and I'm glad your honest since that will help me a lot Maybe the reason why it turned out to be like that is that I don't render the pic... I placed it there brush a lot and clip a lot, I'm a bit crazy on brushing since they're new to me .... Thanks sempai

Dist-sama, no problem at all... already used to it that I really don't have talent when it comes to text effects, maybe I'll start to experiment more on that matter btw already PM the PSD to you right?

*hugs back* thanks for the great tip Pro-sama... oh... I'm addicted to gaussian blur btw since it raise the quality of a pic unexpectedly, thanks for the brushing tip... I'm having a hard time where to place the lighting source specially on a pic without shadow parts... just placed it anywhere >_<

booooo!!! for not saying you're not a pro ... *shared some cookies for the tip...*



ok step aside the comments first, here's a request....




and Nanoha solo... (not safe in this place)
V1 (left it just as that... normal mode)


V2 (overlayed and blurred)

Patchy, you are obviously improving too much for me to handle.

But you misspelled Konakaga with Konakoga

Thanks for noticing it Hooves-sama, mispelled the name, good thing you're here...

Thanks, just trying hard to progress even for a bit

It could be my eyes deceiving me, but I'm quite sure I see some blur on the left side of Nanoha. Once again, it could be from the lack of sleep from studying too much about history, and certain geographic landscapes for fun

What does sched mean?

Also on the Nanoha solo, I find the right side of the blurred version to look a little better then V1 in a way. Also the magical circle is good on V2 also

Momone Momo and Defoko (Utau)

Nice look on that Nanoha sig, I think the second one looks a bit better.

And those two sigs in your recent post I assume you can't use due to them being to large?, which is a shame since they do like very nice.

The second Nanoha signature of the bigger ones is really great. Makes me wish I could use it .. Though really, where do people use THIS large signatures ? No doubt reading such forum is annoying if everyone has massive signatures like that there.

Mittwoch : Maybe I am wrong indeed, but as I don't know anything about image editing and such, maybe I can't see the flaws you can and it looks like an amazing signature to me ? So to you pro people it maybe can lack *flow but others will see it simply as another amazing signature by Patchy ?

*What exactly is '' flow ''. How can you have flow in a picture o.o

I'm definitely already a fan of your work. You really work the stock into the background, and seem to make beautifully complex backgrounds. Also, your typography is stunning!! Placement and font both are dead on. I do notice that certain signature's seem to have a dull look, when the colors should be more vibrant, but really that's the only thing I could possibly criticize.

No problem, I'm a fan of the series myself so I have fun making that sign, and luckily, I didn't have a hard time on doing the sig since the bg already resulted well earlier than I expected.

The sigs that have that size are always used in some grafx forum, like animerender.net and sigresource.com and etc... in those forum the main attraction was their sig so they make bigger size (not so big... but larger than here) so that they can show they're good on making effects since a larger canvas means a more effect to be seen.

Flow hmmm it was written in this tutorial.. http://fluidstudios.deviantart.com/a...ture-104946069 (I'm not following the usual flow and sometimes I creating a flow of myself resulting in a chaotic style

Thanks, just blending them thoroughly that's why they resulted that way... I'm using different stocks these past days, so they are different than my usual style... typography? I'm the one who should said that to you, you're typography is more stunning than my works.
