Beginner Sigs

Thank you everyone. My laptop finally died of old age so it will be a while before I can make more but it's nice to know I was improving

 

Finally got around to making something new. Extremely simple and used ribbet so it's not wonderful. But I'll post it anyway to keep the thread somewhat alive. (Requested by my friend for his LoL profile...)

 

Found this in some of my old work I think it was the last one I made before my computer gave up the ghost. Anyway posting it for comparison. Working with this render a second time to see if I can make something better.



First one I've made in a while. Not great but thought I'd share.

 

Now that you mention it I can see what you mean about the hand. I also notice there is kind of a harsh line right next to the edge of the charter's jacket. >.< I guess that's what I get for rushing through this one. As for the blue flame it is part of the stock but I agree with you. I should have cut it out.
As for the first one you're right. There really wasn't much done with it. If I remember correctly it's just a stock, background, overlay, and text. Most likely I was experimenting with blending and text.

Thanks for the feedback

 

This request took way too long to complete. Mostly because I couldn't figure out what to do with this render. Anyway I attempted 3 separate times before kind of just giving up at the most recent one. I will not be posting my first attempt because I hate it too much.

Attempt 2: Eh Feel free to rip this apart people who actually know what they are doing. Maybe I can try this concept again and not have it turn out so bad next time. >.<

Attempt 3: My most recent try and probably the one I hate the least. It's just very messy.

@Kairu as always, thanks for challenging me with the request. Weather or not you decide to use either of these it doesn't hurt my feelings. And if you want me to try again that's cool too.


If your name isn't Kairu: As always, I welcome feedback. If there is anything you can think of that I could have done differently to make these better feel free to say so.

 

It's like I see things differently when I work on them vs when I post them. But I think you're right about the color on the second. I was playing around with filters (not great ones. I was just using the ones on my phone for the sake of curiosity). I completely got rid of the color and almost like it better that way. that could just be me though.
Ex:


As for the text I tried to blend it into the red effect I had going on in that area. I like it better than previous attempts with text but it still could use work as well.

I like the concept of the second attempt better. I had this image in my head of how I wanted it to look but the result was admittedly poorly done. Maybe at some point I'll try again.

 

Another Yang banner I toyed around with today. I don't think I like it as much as the one I posted on Summoner's thread though.

 

I appreciate your feedback. It really helps me to improve.

I made the following two by request. I'm really not thrilled with the way they turned out which is why I haven't posted them before now. To those of you who have requested sets, I apologize for the long wait and low quality work. I don't currently have photoshop which is causing a major step back.





@Become and @Taboo Sho

If you guys want me to attempt these again with changes please let me know. I plan on buying Photoshop in the near future at which time I will attempt these again.
