Happy birthday Renegade!

A couple things I did today - nothing truly original, but it's better than nothing. For the first one, the flames looked okay without the gaussian blur - the theme being Celestial Being's destruction reflecting on Tieria's own change of mindset, yadda, yadda...and then shazam, added the overall hue and it's not up to what I hoped it'd be. Good grief. I'll probably revamp it at a later date, with mor emphasis on the flames and the entire desintegration thing.

94.

95.

EDIT: I know #94 is over the 50kb limit but this is just for ah, showcase - a forum-friendly, 49kb version is available for grabs in the Gundam area.

Damn... that's amazing sigs of 00 and Tieria.

Renegade334 · 2009-01-26, 15:24

Ha...went on a stroll in and out of Minitokyo - wasn't easy finding things that suited either my tastes, styles or preferred themes, but I eventually found small bits of Eden there. Anyway, I'm on a roll - this might be the last one for today, as I'm knackered and my bed is screaming for my company.

96.

I tried adding a radial blur behind the render (the remnants of which can be espied around the arms, shoulders and hair), to create a feeling of motion - just like I added the same effect to the fairy dust brush for the explosion. Alas, again, the gaussian blur went against my wishes and didn't do it true justice, but I believe the end result is sufficient.

Look Good IMO ...I think you never fail in making Sig

marksky · 2009-01-27, 01:07

just wanna ask where did you get the font? Im also curious how did you make the font with 2 colors..

Renegade334 · 2009-01-27, 01:16

I usually use fonts like Agency FB, Arial, Arial Narrow, Times New Roman, Scriptina, Renaissance, Splendid ES, Dreamscar, Pixelation, Fire of Ysgard, etc.

As for the two-color thing? Easy - I simplify/rasterize the font layer, select the upper/lower part of the text and change its color/opacity/saturation (repeat for both parts). To create the 'reflection'/'chrome' effect, you just have to add a flare not too far away.

I am quite confuse in this part...
How do i select the upper and lower part of the text?

Renegade334 · 2009-01-27, 10:23

This way.

Do it once for the upper part, then for the lower part. Yes, it's a manual select - there's no command/action or whatever. It's all by hand.

marksky · 2009-01-27, 12:00

Oh now i get it.. Thanx so much renegade..

Renegade334 · 2009-01-27, 12:09

Uhh...in Photoshop Elements 2.0, it's CTRL+U, but I dunno whether they kept it for newer versions or other language packs.

In CS2, you have to follow Image > Adjustment > Hue/Saturation.

http://img209.imageshack.us/img209/139/test2yz8.jpg

Or, again, use CTRL+U

BTW, your request is available in the Anime Signature Request thread:

- 425x153px

- 405x153px

- 385x153px

Don't touch the 425x153px version - it's the original, full-length sig, but I didn't trim its size to below the 50kb limit. The 405 et 385px versions, however, are forum rules-friendly.

SkyLight · 2009-01-27, 12:46

OMG I love your work it's freaking amazing keep this up

Love the Gundam ones the most

Renegade334 · 2009-01-27, 13:58

Well, here's more:

97a.

97b.

A small comeback to the 'overall-white-background' style...although subverted with the 'breaking through the (fourth

) wall' idea.

I applied almost transparent borders for 97a, so as to preserve the white bg, whereas 97b (which is the full-fledged, non forum-friendly, 101kb version) provides more contrast with the board background itself.

I'll be using it here renegade-sama

Renegade334 · 2009-01-28, 08:18

Another one...

98.

Renegade334 · 2009-01-29, 11:46

Ka-bump.

Added this to the forum banner contest...

Yeah, familiar renders, eh? *whistles away without even an ounce of guilt*

EDIT:

Optimized for blending with the header background.

Marina · 2009-01-29, 15:37

Hehe, I noticed your render in the banner entry thread and thought...."huh....I remember those as a couple of sigs..."

Nice work on it by the way, I see you playing with your lovely brushes as usual >.<

I've always loved your style and was curious if you had time for a request! I know from your entry that you can't make deadline promises, and I'm totally ok with that. I have renders in mind and if you're interested, just let me know

In the mean while, I'm digging your valkyrie sig, is it available for use?
