The text is hardly readable and the render seems to stand out too much. Some blending might help.
Your older sig looks better so far. As others say, the mask is just strange in there...couldn't have found a better one? Other than that, all the lines on Shinji look too agressive. Something positive for a change; that background (and the way he blends) is sweet...absolutely love it. Quote:
Still, the mask...maybe adding some effects over it...or something...

Ok, had some time to think. First off, I like the background, however Rika is pretty blurry, and part of her hair is chopped off at the bottom. One of the first things a signature maker should learn is composition. Think of a signature like painting a picture. If you just slap random elements together it will look like....well, random.
So you have to think "what do I want this signature to look like?" Once you have an idea, you look up how to do it (or figure it out by experimenting). Blending the different pieces of your signature into one smooth signature is part of composition. I'm not sure on what program you use (photoshop, gimp, paint, etc.), but we do have a tutorial thread stickied at the top of the forums that has a ton of links to check out. Don't get discouraged though! If you have questions, feel free to ask them here, or in the tutorial thread, or in our Signature Creation, Discussion and Improvement Thread. I think the text should be clearer, and perhaps in a different font. The render is good, and I like the concept, but the future seems a little murky (no pun intended. ) If I'm looking at it correctly, it's past on one side, future on the other? I like the old one, although the left side seems empty. The new one has a good image, but feels very empty and the text is hard to read. I like the bold color on both though. The render is very sharp and the mask doesn't look right. The background is interesting to look at and the side is pretty neat as well, although it took me a moment to realize that it was Shinji wearing his trademark hat.

For the colors of the text, I picked a color from each other side. It's not my view of the future, it related to the serie ( texhnolyze) it's more at the surface on one side and Lukuss at the other.

I like the new one exeptf or the black line at the left. :?
Overall the BG is well executed and I like it a lot. But I'm not a big fan of that render Jjust can say that I like it Yay, currently working on V4 of mine

The background on the left hand side seems bland compared to the background on the right hand side. Maybe add a few of the green and gray polygons on the left to make the two sides look more balanced?
