Ripple on the face kills it for me.
much better without the ripple![]()
Ditto, red and black clashing works quiet well.focal point is the female - eye directed under 3 seconds= good
rule of thirds is slightly a miss, the swirl on the right clashes a tad for attention.white on left is a tad strong for the light and shadowing on the character.
love the grid bit.
overall 8/10
I like the coloring a lot. The ripple works but is a bit too distracting, I'd love to see it more to the right in the almost empty spot there.
Light seems to come from a different direction though, bit lower down and it's also slightly too light. Remus got it covered though.
Big fan anyhow, great job!

Yeah the light does seem just a TAD too bright. Just a tad.![]()
Few problems on this one from m opinion :|
- As said before the ripple on the face, really looks odd
- The light source. should be above the head and a bit weaker
- The bevel (white line on the top and side) Don't use them in tags
- The text, never make the text too fancy on a tag. try make it nice and simple. E.G.
(old tag of mine)
Good job anyway![]()

Yeah, this tag i didn't finish because i wasn't liking it, or else i would change the colour to the main colours in the tag.
I don't get it, why criticize mine when the thread is about BrightChild's tag

1. yes the ripple looks a bit weird, fixed now though.
2. Why above the head exactly? No shadow on her forehead and the drop shadow on her neck would be stronger if the light source was above her.
3. It works in this case but should be used with caution. "Don't" is a strong word, if done right everything works.
4. Same here, it works here and again: "never" is a powerful word. Text doesn't need to be simple. In fact, text can be as complicated as everything else as long as it fits the theme of the signature. If it works with the composition, it's usable in most cases.
Not meant to be harsh. I just want to find out your reasoning![]()

I like it, without the ripple.
I personally like brighter sigs with high contrast, generally, but yours still looks pretty good.
