[Showoff] Venom Signature

[Jchunx]

Well here is a signature I made today. I got kind of frustrated because
of how flat the Render seems. But I hope you guys like this. Let me know
what you think!

*ALSO* - I tried a different style for Text. The whole thing were you add
like a paragraph of small words under the name. Let me know what you think
about the text too please.

Here is the render I used:


Here is the signature:


I think I went a little too crazy with the lighting. :\

I think I went a little too crazy with the lighting. :

I have to say u definitely did. And you are right about the render, it is really flat.

The placing of the lighting is a bit missed up. If you look to the right of the lighting, his body. It is darker than the left side of his face. And it doesnt work because of where the light is. Other than that it looks good. The text is nice and well the lighting is good just placement is needed to be worked on.

Thanks. What you just said is actually very helpful.

Next time I will mess with the lighting a bit more. The only thing is I didn't want
to get the lighting confused with the plasma ball type thingy that I put in his hand.
So in a sense, I kind of made the light come from the ball in his hand, rather then
from a sun or some thing.

Thanks so much for the comment, Maine.

I dont know this this could work but. You could try making that ball a different color. Then add some lighting.
Thats just something that could possibly work. OR to make the lighting on the render work with the lighting you have placed.
If you know how to use the burn and the dodge tool. You could try using them. Dodge on places where the lighting should be on the render
IE: The spot right of the lighting. And the Burn tool on the darker spot were there is no light. IE: The right side of the signature.
IF you do this right it can turn out very well and add alot of depth to it.

Let me tell you, the signature is great, but its colors (The lightning ball, the text do'nt match, use moar Gradientmaps/Photofilters and maybe you could have turned the hardnes for the lightningball up

For the text, just lower the Opacity ~5%
