Iridescent Remission

[Otzlowe]

Yes another new sig! I'm having lots of fun experimenting with the x brush, and really messing with the whole smudge process, mutating it, and making it into... what I happily call... my best signature.


Woot! A non-warm colored, depressed, dark (and at the same time, vibrant XD) signature!

And for the sake of my Obsessive Compulsive tendencies, an avatar to go with it!

Thats really cool, you got the right shade of green/yellow I suppose it is. And that image is awesome. I used that way back on various things. Now I feel tempted to make another one lol!

The background effect merges well with the smudging effects for sure. Blends in nicely. And the effect around his sword is excellent too, like some sort of aura. Text seems good but I would suggest making its Anti alias smooth, I think it would make it look nicer, that looks quite pixelly if you know what I mean...

Hmmm other suggestions? Border is nice and simple but some other border effects may have looked good with it. And maybe the X smudge brush or brush could have been a little more subtle. Either way its awesome.

Nice job!

Thanks a lot Ram.

I futzed with the border for a bit, but I ended up not liking what I did, and decided (for the sake of time, mostly), just to leave it nice and simple.

The real reason I didn't make the x-brush more subtle though, it because I wanted a less realistic, serious feel to it. Like the Xs were shooting out forward from behind a still image. It would have been easier to seem like that, if I hadn't set it on overlay, and they blended into his dark armor. But... I set them on overlay to make them blend into the background more, but still stand out, without being pure eye-catching white.

I'll go mess with those things a little anyway, to see if I can't fix them. Thanks again.


EDIT: Edited the sig to Ram's suggestions... but... I didn't really change too much. Didn't really make the x brush too subtle compared to before... but, like I said... I got the effect I was aiming for to begin with, really.
