I like it but i think the Box is a bit sharp compared to the rest.

Not bad mate, but I think you need to branch out into other sport genres at the very least. You're American football signatures do look great, but I think you've saturated this thread with too many.

Century Gothic is a good choice for Sprite Tags.

Not bad 'Try. A touch to dark in places without a smooth blend, but a difficult style to master. Keep it up.

I was thinking that all your signatures are on the darker tip, but that isn't necessarily a bad thing as I get the impression of [fast] movement with the figures in the foreground. I'm not sure if I would be left with the same impression if you were to use lighter backgrounds, but I would advise you try something outside of your comfort zone next time in a lighter sig. 8|

Good stuff that I've seen here. Keep it up, man.

its been a while.
and i haven't branched much, but i was going through my desktop and found 4 renders of my 4 favorite defensive backs in the league, had to do something with em.

i need a new sig/avy set, so if i find an appropriate render, i might go for a light sig.

Its a nice sig but looks bland in comparison to the rest of your sigs.
The font i dislike but i do like the simple style.

Mate, don't take this the wrong way, but can you make a sig of anything else other than the institution known throughout the United States as the NFL (National Football League)? Some are better than others, and your last 2 seem a bit lacking. The last is better than the next to last, but only for the reason it seems like something out of a newspaper (in that the way that it's colored). Font choice is perfect, but outside of those +'s, the rest are all negatives. This is in part because your renders are all cut from the same cloth that is American football. Trust me, I'm not in any fashion saying that you should give up making signatures or that the NFL is trash (I believe the opposite quite frankly). However, what I am saying is that perhaps you should dabble in other things, like when you made your Wolverine signature.

That is easily your best signature. EVER. The font choice is also quite good, considering that it looks like the old-school comic books used to. Well done.

I like the change from usual "dark" style (not that it is/was a bad style though), my main criticism would be that you have gone too far from the dark, the shadows aren't defined enough IMO.

A brilliant comic-esque style you got there, works really well :)

Another brilliant sig, easily the best of the 3. A tiny criticism would be that your name seems more of an after thought on the sig, rather than being part of it... I would offer advice, but I suck at putting text in sigs, and probably do a much worse job than that :)

All-in-all 3 great sigs ;)

Some sort of filter or blending option would have made the text alot better. Still very good though.

I'm not a huge fan of the color of the word "Superman", but that is a rather silly thing to focus on when the rest of the signature looks incredible.
