I do not recognize the second subject and I think I might recognize the third, but I'm not entirely certain.

On an artistic level, I happily cheer and applaud you; very lovely rendering and composition!

Iron Man and Magneto certainly don't receive nearly as much attention as they ought to, and ... hmm, not sure if the fourth is supposed to be "Kung Fu Panda" or a Pandaren... but as I'm quite fond of oriental culture, martial arts, tai chi and such forth, I am subsequently quite fond of that signature!

Please explain more about the second and third pieces... I love them on a visual level, but I would really like to understand them and why they inspired you.

they are really good!! you are really talented, although i do not what the original pictures looked like you are very creative
im so dumb, when i opened the topic i actually thought they were going to be graduating class of 2009 graphics (oh nine, 09?)

[Reaver]

Thanks for the comments guys. As you can see there is more to come.

Fractured.Logic -
The second subject is what you would call abstract/fractal and was created using the first sig if you look closely you can see the hand and face of iron man. The third one is from the iron man poster where he is hit by a tank and his armor is damaged and his suit is failing and i decided to see what it would look like if i placed him in a peaceful setting and thats how sunset came about. Meditation is a Pandaren and that and magneto are sigs ive done awhile ago now just in my sig block.

Thanks, it is 09 but not graduating just sigs i have done recently so you are not dumb hehe. And since you and fracture want to know what the originals where ill place the images here. Doom is just a render with smudge and filters.

wow your first post was great!
the color effects is awsome, its like a coll summer atmsphere!

[Tramposch]

Oh wow, very nice signatures.

I do not have that much time to critique all of them though! I apologize!

You have very good artistic, photographic, and photo manipulation talent! Congrats, that is a great set of gifts to have and I hope you use them well!

[Alex Cicala]

All these signature images are top notch. Man you need to teach me

That must be hard to do though, how long would one of those take to make?

Also damn my crow animation can't beat your talent lol

Haha I remember. Still lookin' good there Reaver! Certainly haven't lost that touch.

I'm a sig maker myself, though not a very brilliant one, as I've only started a couple of months ago, but I thought I would like to give some comments on the nine signatures... just positive criticism, so you can improve on your sig making skills, and I can improve on my criticising skills and knwo what to look for in my own sigs and what to improve and avoid and learn.

1) It's pretty good, I like it very much, but it wouldn't actually work on a dark background, especially black because the white would contrast with it a bit too much and it will probably blind (well, not blind, but stands out a lot) people that look at it on the forums.

2) It like this one too... there's really nothing wrong with it apart from having the same problem as number one sig.

3) No comment. That one's very good.... maybe change the text font or size a little? I can read it, and I don't have glasses, but that doesn't mean everyone can read it too... good job, well done!!!

4) No comment. This one's really good, though the graphics not to my taste... but it's just my personal opinion. Everyone can have a say at how they feel about it.

5) Very good... no comment either. Just the text, maybe.... .....

6) This one is the one that actually caught my eye and made my want to reply... firstly, that is way too bright, especially if you were to use it in a black and dark coloured forum. You'll have no problem blinding people, like you nearly did with it here on me... I think you saturarized your colours a teeny weeny bit too much. Try making it softer and maybe more natural... Not artificial like what you've done with it.

7) That ones good. I'm not concerned about the bright blue bit in the middle at all... It fits in with the rest of the graphics... Just change the size of the text a bit bigger than it is now... That's my only concern...
