Well... I havent seen that anime to see how it suits the tech style I see you did for the sig
its quite impressive that you drawn most of the sig, but... the sig is too big, having that in your sig here in ep would cause you to scroll up and down to fully see it, which would kill it... the text shadows makes it difficult to read it, specially since the font itself is a rather difficult one to look at, also the text color (which is pretty bright) on a white background makes no contrast...
the render would look better if you blend it a bit, you could have put segments of the honeybee pattern over her and that would have done some depth, which is also missing.

The sig looks good, but it could have been better imho...

THANK YOU!!! that is all i wanted!!! if im losing really bad i just want to know what i can do to improve!!
ok so the honey comb pattern is used alot in the show so that why its there... plus they fly mechs so that where the tech style comes in....
i don't know about the too being big and having to scoll down to see... some people here at EP have like 3-4 different pics in there sig and i don't have to scoll to see their huge sigs lol i have to scoll past like 4 sigs just to read the next post (which is annoying.. you guys should put a limit on sig size period, having a bigger sig then your actual post is a bit ridiculous).. but i do agree with you that it is on the big side for a sig.. would be better suited as a psp wall lol... the bg i made is white and blue cause the anime is called sky girls so there ya go... i agree the text is a little hard to read.. its even harder to read with out the shadow lol but i made it big to compensate which kinda killed it (and i was having a problem finding a font that kinda matched the style and didnt look all robotic or square).... i definitly agree that i should have put the honeycomb pattern over her a bit... shoulda thought of that.... text color... umm.. i don't what i thinking.. i just wanted to make it match and i did lol too well in fact.... again thank you very much.. your the best, Kaiser... at least im still proud of tsuki!!!

It was a tough decision but I had to go with the bottom because it's more sig sized

if it wasn't for that I wouldn't have been able to choose

imo, the render looks sort of blurred. The rest of the sig is clear and sharp and the render is not. It could have been blended as it in a stark contrast from the rest of the sig, colour and every thing wise...

you drew 80%! Wow!! stunning to see that!

The Size of the sig and the render bothered me the most

yeah i did everything myself other then the girl, the font and the logo (which i did alter though cause its pink).. i vectored the grey area.. simple... same with the honeycomb... made one comb and cloned the hell out it then faded it.. simple... added shadows to the stuff i thought needed and adjust a few colors and was done.... i WAS really happy till it turned to be a fail lol... oh well i still like it but ill bury it in my forget me folder lol... also thanks you for the critism..  and thanks for everyone telling me what's up now!! lol im not even gonna look at the results anymore.. i don't want to know.. seems like im better at bigger pics.. maybe i should stop with sigs and work only on walls....

and by the way it looked worse lol see below

Your sig does'nt fail azumi. If you look at my other sigs you'll see that they really fail.
I didnt really like mine because it was too plain, i wanted to blend it in with the BG, but i got lazy lol.
Thanks for the fun lil battle, now i have to go watch Bleach.

seems most of sigs lately have been getting bigger and bigger.... sig size just isn't big enough... the render i cut out of this picture


maybe shrinking it made it look funny... i don't know i still think the render looks fine.. all i really did to it was brighten it by like 2%

sure, no problem everyone here is just enjoying and getting better ^__^



here are 2 suggestion though

for the font (#1) you should have used the same one as the SKYGIRLS in the upper corner, which is a just Arial...

and you should have tried to make the part when the render ends (#2)... softer, it ends too flat, its like its missing something, specially since the sig doesn't end at the same time, as simple as getting the a bit of the honeybee desing over the area would have decreased a bit the drastic ending on the stock...

Azumi, I kinda worked on your sig a little and this is what I got...

how's it now?

I didnt do anything to the honeycomb as I have no idae how you did that and I didnt want to mess it up!
