1) GT and user name Blue Mtn Dew
2) What type of program are you using? cs6
3) How much experience you have with your program and making sigs 2-3 years. I stop making designs for over a year but im getting back into the swing. My work now might be alilttle below were i use to be, but with some more practice i can easily get it back to where it has to be.
4) Would you be interested in transferring to XDC to be in a clan with other, like-minded members who also enjoy designing?
No thanks

Very good work Mnt.

Please work on the test images that Radioactive posted up. This will allow us to see what all is being done to the image. =)

Hi Mtn! Welcome to the design applications!

I love your work so far, though, like Ixi said, please do the images. These allow us to see what you're able to do exactly, because we'll know the exact image you started from. Remember, the more works you put out, the better we gauge your talents!

If you have any questions at all, please feel free to contact me! I use GIMP, so specific program questions won't work, but over all advice, I'm here!

I like the ghosts one. The only thing I could offer is check up on the rules of thirds. It's a rule about focal and text placement that helps with flow. Also the lighting comes from a bit of a wrong angle.


In not feeling the stang, it seems like you just placed s c4d on top of it.


These are just my opinions. Keep up the work!!!!

Continue to make sigs. I chose that one because it is difficult.sometimes you get pretty bum requests.

Feel free to use past week's images as well. When I get to a computer tomorrow I'll post new ones.

You've definitely got talent and a unique style.

Could I see some work with text? Text is a hard skill, and 99% of your requests will require text, I.e. names and clans.

The mustang is far too cluttered. There's stuff all over the focal. Try to find a sense of direction/flow. Instead of having the effects go all over the place in any direction.. Find a direction that works well with your focal. For instance.. A render with a guy pointing his arm to the right would do well to have effects that follow the same path as his arm. Another thing to keep in mind is your blending with color tones. In your mustang Sig.. You have a black car with a yellow based background yet you threw purple based effects on top of it. Doesn't blend very well. Keep these things in mind :)

Ok thanks a lot! Appreciate the CnC. This no excuse but I deff need to download more c4ds and such that would match this color theme. Any other suggestion or any good stock tutriols I could follow? Or any tutriols I could try, always up to learn new styles and improve
