synister EFFECT Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 (edited) http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/gg303/sandman1012/EffectsGallery-3.png I use Gimp, and have been making sigs not for very long, and comments and requests are always welcome.

Shaynringan Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 Hey, I like your work, like the Iron Man and Sora one especially. The purple-black request one is cool too, you do some interesting things with color contrast. My only suggestion would be to try some borders on your work with the rounded corners to make it look more smooth, and to continue with smaller areas like you seem to be doing in your more recent work. You're right, they are kinda big. You say you're just starting to learn this stuff? That's a lot better then my work when I started, you're on a roll.

synister EFFECT Posted April 12, 2008 Author Share Posted April 12, 2008 New sig guys. I liked this one, but I could not figure out where to put the text. Btw no one has claimed the Bioshock sig yet.

Ashz0r Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 The contrast on alot of them are quite dark, try working with the brightness.. for example the eyes and edges of the armour on your newest sig you could make them slightly brighter to give it more defintion to the stock, in photoshop I would advise using the "Dodge Tool" to do this but I don't know if Gimp has something similiar because i've never used it before.

arCtiK AsSaSsIn Posted April 15, 2008 Share Posted April 15, 2008 Since you are using gimp.. Duplicate your background or main layer and set it to overlay. Then go to layers> light and shadow> gradient flare and then click on the screen where you want your lighting to be or where its too dark. This should fix the darkness problem but otherwise pretty sweet sigs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SynysterMonkey Posted April 15, 2008 Share Posted April 15, 2008 I like them all a lot. I especially like the CoD 4 ones, Bioshock and the wanted Argonian. Do you think you could make a wanted Kajiit (or however you spell it) one from Oblivion. Also your name is Synisterly cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
synister EFFECT Posted April 15, 2008 Author Share Posted April 15, 2008 Lol, thanks assassin that should help. That would be a lot easier if I didn't resize most of the images:(. But I'll try. That's actually what I did on the bioshock on THATS STILL OUT THERE IF SOMEONE WANTS!!! And synyster, I'll start working on that in a few minutes.

Also, I tried to fix the ironman sig like you guy said, and this is what I came up with: http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/gg303/sandman1012/ironmansig3-1.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arCtiK reApEr Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 This one isn't very good tbh. The render seems squashed somewhat, and it is much brighter than the background, making it seem out of place. Also, the Locust's hand was not rendered very well.

Sorry I didn't really put any heart into that one, I was tired lol, but the critics have spoken and I'll start working on this. Lol, to tell the truth, that whole background was one paintbrush stroke. Pretty sad right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThunderStorm101 Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 i actually quite like your SOTF entry but in my opinion its ruined by its size, for a "boxed" sig you should try to keep to small sizes i.e somthing about the size of the ones in my sig currently (cant remember the exact px size but its somthing like 300x130), also im not to found of the weird double boarder, keep it to a single 1/2 px boarder Try using some C4DS and tuts on various sites , we have some here and also try gfxfreaks.com ,T/S101 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was going to cut off the bottom of the pic, but I thought it might make the coral look funny. Well, I'll figure something out. Thanks for the input, I love your sigs btw. Good thing you don't actually enter the sotf, or you'd win at least half the time lol:D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
