Busty she is not, too dark the sig is and not a fan of the text, however the blending is very nice. I would've probably used a 200px soft white brush near the top left of her face to add a little lighting and just messed around with the opacity till it fit.

Brush lighting wouldnt work on this style of sig. Sig is meant to be dark as thats the atmosphere i wanted to give off to go with the start. Lightning is there but it not overpowering as thats not what i want.


Background is dark while she more prevelant and bright around her. Giving that feeling of being lost while she is a sparkle in that darkness like a flower of color.


Text was something i was debating on adding or not adding. Personally I like that style as it a more gothic style text and fits with the theme and render chosen.

Think you should have either brightened up or used a brighter render then. She doesn't really spark out at all.

The entire sig is dark and pulls away from the great colors this sig could have. It should be a tad brighter, add a soft pink linear dodge layer on about 3 or 4 percent opacity. The image seems LQ for some reason, that may be because it looks hand drawn. Idk if there is anything you could do about that but it might be something to toy around with. The right side seems over sharpened a little and you need some depth. Drop the font all together, I don't think it needs it.

You see she has much lighter tones then then the BG does. She stands out much more and c4ds effects around her. While the sig is primarily dark she is much lighter than a good deal of the sig. She doesnt "sparkle" as i said in the sense of the word butt that she is a bit lighter as the bg.

I dont think being dark would mess with the colors. They are just on a deeper palette. I dont think adding a pink linear dodge will be a good idea. I think that may change how some effects actually look even at a low opacity. Image doesnt look LQ to me. Right side doesnt look over-sharpened to my eyes. Both of these could be a difference in resolution however. Depth is there but it is primarily in the BG and none really in the FG. I probably wont change that as I like how it is.

As for text, it is never needed. Text is always preference. In this case I wanted text and happy with it.


Thanks for the comments

I'm sorry but are you afraid of the female body? anyways awesome attempt at the sig. In my personal opinion dark is never dark enough but at the same time this is almost too dark...
BUT! you can fix it. You're hiding the render too much, allow it to be the centre of the piece, instead of concealing it in the back ground.

btw guys... I do pms when I don't sleep... sorryz!

I can try it when I get it since there is a lot of opposition to it being too dark. Could just be my monitor.

Once I get photoshop again that is. Though I will probably just incorporate what I learn when I start a new project

Generally, when you're working with something of that size, you shouldn't have 1/3rd of the sig being negative space. It can't fully flourish that way. I am guilty of it too, but the best signatures use space better.

Yo man whatsup :)? The signature is a bit too small. I like the scattered effects near the text going towards the top right corner and in the background as well. I just think its too tiny to really take notice of those effects. Also just me, I don't like that light thing behind the render on the right. I think the only reason I don't like it is because you followed a tutorial because I've always been a fan of all your sigs :P.
