Larthak, really love that render of yours. Would you mind if I used it sometime?

Nikusu · 2008-12-24, 00:26

That render is freaking sweet. As for the signature I like the design. I guess if I had to critique it I'd say there's not enough contrast from the background to the render. Maybe the composition is a bit off too. It's just my style, but I rarely use a full body shot in a signature. Maybe try a little bit closer up? You're more skilled than I so don't take my critiques to heart. Regardless I'd still say it's an amazing signature. I love the text, the background, and the render. Gifted with multiple talents I see.

Suit yourself, it's one of the reasons I've shown it here.

You are right of course. As I said, whatever I did to the sig, it was still not enough...not good enough. Having problems with making nice BGs lately.

I think I'll give the sig another chance some other time. For now, it's my December's weakest point.

Oh and thank you for the honest criticism.

Nikusu · 2008-12-24, 14:46

I made you a Christmas gift but be prepared it's not Christmas or even Winter themed. I had no idea what to do for you so I just went with a normal siggy. I'll post it tonight.

Edit: I'll post it tonight. It's posted. I hope you enjoy it.

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas to you aswell! Enjoy the holidays to their fullest!

And here's a little thank you for the sig you made.

( Sowwy for the size, AS limits

)

And of course, Merry Christmas to all of AniSuki! =)

Nikusu · 2008-12-25, 12:20

Holy wowzers! I feel ashamed for the gift I gave you in comparison to this masterpiece of transparency! *feels urgency to wear as soon as possible* Gah. You are a master. You can do serious or cute signatures and they always turn out amazing. Yet again, I am humbled by your greatness. You never seize to amaze me. Thank you so very much for the gift and have a Merry Christmas!

Yup, it's Ayano Minegishi from LS.

Nikusu · 2008-12-28, 02:52

I wish Christmas was like a week-long event. lol I kind of wanted to wear that for a longer period of time. Maybe I'll do the whole Christmas in July thing.

KasumiGirl · 2008-12-28, 10:41

That Miko render is really nice. o____o
Nice choice of image.

Larthak · 2009-01-10, 08:36

Long time, no s-...igs!

With lots of good anime all around, it's kinda hard to convince oneself to do something.

But I'm back! And with me comes the very first sig of this year. Just as the weather outside the window is, this thing is a bit chilly.

Phew, I thought I'm not gonna participate in this month's SOTM. Looks like I was mistaken.

Spoiler for HUGE FILESIZE (animated version):

NorthernFallout · 2009-01-11, 06:10

God damn, love that sig. Text fits in, very nice lightning and color. My type of sig, definitely.
Also, the animation actually works, opposed to most I see everywhere else. Nice recording in the lower left corner.

Riker · 2009-01-11, 06:10

That's alot of frames. ^^;

Have you considered slicing up the individual sections so that they have fewer frames at each section?

I fear that's impossible with this advanced animation tool working as a timeline rather than a slideshow of frames. Of course, I'd have removed some frames if I made it the classical way.

[Animation Tab]

Ah, whatever, even with the planet being a static pic, the gif had over 100 kB (just the animated text) and the pic itself is already a little below 50 kB so I ended up not caring about the filesize if it's not possible for SOTM without destroying the sig's quality.

Update
One more pic to be posted!

Nikusu · 2009-01-17, 04:36

This new one is wonderful. I love the red on black. It's got a really good color scheme not to mention the blending looks top notch.

Thanks for the kind words. I didn't expect it to be that praised.

Aaaand I decided to change my banner once again. Well...not much of a change there, just switched my mascot since Kona-chan is my favorite anime character of all time and altered the blue tone in the banner.

Spoiler for slightly big:

NorthernFallout · 2009-01-18, 07:57

I really like the vector/abstract theme. Very nice color and text too. Very nice banner overall, especially with Kona on the op XD
