I love the effects on that sig.

One thing i would change is the border over the arm, it looks a bit weird as its a overlay.

A well deserved first place

Cheers mate - I'll get onto the avatar soon now that I've entered the two running comps at the moment. On that note, this is my entry for SOTW #67:

Render of swimmer (Michael Phelps if interested)
Render of Olympic Rings used to make my name.

Amazing sig btw!! Michael Phelps is beast!! Incredible athlete.

Why thankee Scopejim - always nice to hear that sort of thing - so here's a new one that i did because i was bored

Basically been trying me some new stuff, hence how everything under the render is 'homemade' and doesn't use any renders/C4Ds - just brushes textures etc....

[Nid]

That Gundam sig is Brilliant.
Really catches the attention. It's colourful and thhe colours contrast well.
And for you to have made that background yourself is awesome.
Brilliant work.

[Wizard]

Huge sig is Huge!!

But very good. I'd have moved the text closer to the render, but this is all.

[Libains]

Awesomely huge sig was huge.... yeah well it was within the margins (just). And thanks for the praise Niddy and Wizard. Now onto the latest sig

This was one that I just threw together because I felt like having a new one....

And because this place is dead, here's one that I've spent a very long time on trying to get it all right:

Of this, the only thing that i didn't do is the render. As per usual, everything else is handmade. I especially like the way that the imagery to the left has come out, as it adds an extra dimension and looks kinda 3D, which is neat imo
I am considering removing the Ak-47..... i'm not sure about them...

Woah, That looks Nice, Keep it up

[TheDR]

Love the font and the AKs.

I don't like the fact Nicholas Cage is Giant compared to the rest of the sig, maybe make him a bit smaller.

Otherwise i really like it.

[Crazykenny]

Thats some high quality stuff you got there mate

[Brad]

I love what you have done there, real good quality work, although you could make Nicholas Cage a little smaller, he is giant.

But overall, some very high quality work.

[BeefJeRKy]

AJ's newest sig rocks! I love Nick Cage and I don't think the sig is too big.

[Sgt. Nuker]

If I were to swallow my tongue, drop my jaw, or pass out any more, I think my parents would have me rushed to the hospital for fear I had something wrong with me. Great ZOG that's a magnificent signature. Keep the AK's, they add to the art piece I feel. I especially love the fact that half of Nic Cage's bust is composed of bullets. Very appropriate.

[Libains]

Your comments have been great, thanks very much guys, it's a great thing to have you stand up and say that. As such, while I love that sig too, this is my entry for SOTW #70 on the theme of core. There's a lot of work gone into this one that can't be seen - 7 duplicates of the original image, 2 gradient maps and about 8 different light sources. Admitdely, I need to do something with the text on the left-hand side, and reinstate my border that seems to have gone missing.

Render

[Warbz]

Nice, but the BG seems a bit bland and I don't like the way the tank gets cut off on the right.

[Libains]

Well, i think it's fix'd nicely now:

Oh, and Warbz, can't do anything about that because of the render, which itself gets cut off there.

Now that is even more awesome!

[Pav:3d]

Indeed its a huge improvement on the original, nicely done :o

[BeefJeRKy]

Alright AJ I've decided to ask you to make me a very interesting sig. I hope you can make me a sig related to various Calculus formulae such as Taylor series and possible graph of any function, I dunno be creative . For a background, I'd say lined paper look would be awesome. The avatar should be a similarly themed background with a capital Sigma (greek letter).

P.S Forgot to mention, the sig should have the words Calculus Nerd.

[Libains]

Well, it's been a loooong time since i posted here. Firstly - Scope's stuff can be seen on his profile right above here, so take a gander.

Secondly, I made this for myself as I needed to get rid of Raoul

[Jok3r]

Sorry... but I'm not huge on this one. Its good, it just doesn't appeal to me .
Swimmer

[TheDR]

Ooo i really like it
Its nice and swish.

Please change the avatar, you can tell you have squeezed it as it looks squashed compared to your sig

[Libains]

Thanks Doc - it was just a placeholder but i enjoyed making the swish fiery effect - it was fun

Well, I was listening to an interesting song called Adiemus today - quite phenomenal but probably not to most people's tastes here. Anyways, gave me the idea for this sig, it also uses my first clipping mask:

[TheDR]

All i can say that its very wordy

I really like it, i think it has some good effects with a simple style, Good work
