Just some styles I'm playing with.. Not working very well as you can see >_< Sigh...

Hope to hear comments about them =x







I know they are horrible >_<

hey they are not horrible.. if anything they are pretty cute, flashy, and i really like how you did the image through the letters

Agreed. I like the top one the best though. The dark look always looks good and that one does too. Continue to improve and you will do well.

The "Dark" and "Sexy" ones are really good. I think the "Red" one has too much Red in it as it kinds of bleeds into everything and it's hard to see. It kinda reminds of the Virtual Boy with only the black and red.

But, I think "Sexy" is my favorite as I really like the close-up of her face.

nah, they were good. i personally liked the one with lulu most.

Wow... Thanks everyone. I thought its bad =x Thanks for the comments and encouragements =D

^^ I'll try to improve on the designs.

Agreement! You picked great stock to use, they really fit. Especially for the 'Sexy' one, with Lulu's face and that pretty pretty mole.

I like the sexy one, it looks well done

how long have you been using PS for?

I start learning photoshop seriously around half a year. =x

Why? =x

Yes i agree there not ugly either a little fixing up and they could be a little better but i think there original different most sigs have chars in them and then painting and effects in the background i havnt seen a many text sigs if u work on it, it will be mad guess its just ur style

I think these are pretty cool to be honest. And it doesn't matter WHAT it is, EVERY single thing you do, every little technique you learn, only builds up confidence, and eventually you'll be comfortable with as many styles and you can absorb and that'll morph into you own style. Keep up the great work =D

Thanks Wakka and KCshushu =)

I'll keep on trying.

Mean while. New Sig.



Not sure if this works well. But this outcome is somehow what I wanted =) Though not sure if it looks nice.

The overall idea of your latest one is cool, but it's hard to tell what the text is supposed to be (or at least it is to me). Only when I highlight the pic can I tell that it says 'Memento Mori', so that kind of detracts from the text a bit in my opinion.

Your latest sigs have been looking good though. Keep it up. =).

There is a certain essence of it though that intruiges me.

I am not really sure about this one. It looks a bit too simple. I mean, you made it dark and added the text dark in it that basically covers the entire signature.
That you see the character through the text is well done, but that is about it. Can't really see who it is anyway, I think it is Paine from FF X-2, or maybe the girl from DoA, Ayane.



The same goes for this one as the above, really. This one does look better, due to the fact that there is more contrast and therefore the signature is clearer than the previous one.



This one needs some work. There is little to no contrast and I have no idea who's inside the sig.

Personally, I think it is good to see you trying out new techniques, but personally I am not too fond of these sigs. This is however, my personal opinion.




I am not a fan of this one. The white and black give an immense contrast difference, then we have the rainbow colours on the white sides and normal colours inside the text.
On that note, I can't read what it says, it looks like Meniento Mor, or something like it.

You do make your signature look stylish, which shows, however, I prefer your current Orange signature, in comparison to any of these.

I do admire your transformation in style though. =)

xD Still pretty blunt the eh Cookie. Hehe. Anyways Nice comments though.

Anyways I'll always give you mah support Dan xD

Hmm, I wasn't that blunt, was I?
Anyway, I like that he changes style every now and then.
Besides, positive comments don't really improve you. Second, everyone has diffirent tastes =P.

Thanks Pesmerga For your compliment and comments =) I'll take note =)

A new set of sig. For Lance's haha.





Blooregard Q.Kazoo

Its nothing but plain and plain and boring lol. Its just a sig to fit his nick thats all lol.

Haha, I like this signature. Reminds me a lot of Locoroco, I game I really enjoyed.
The signature is very simple, but nobody ever said it has to be difficult. The sig does what it needs to do, good work!

Avatar, nice as well. Though, maybe it would look better if the colours matched with the sig, or the other way around.

Anyway, I like this set ^^.

Thanks Pes =) Haha... Yeah I suppose Sigs can be simple and still look nice. Anyway

I edited My submission For the field piece :



that and I edited it to become a spoof of Sin City



Because the roundish building in the sig is the Esplande in Singapore xDDDD So yeah. Parody Spoof =p

Any Comments?

The lighting looks good on the submission for the fieldpiece. Not sure what else to say. Looks good. =).

Thanks DB =)

Testing new style again lol. This time a little of a "post card" Feel.

Its called "Sora" because the main focus. But I name the overall theme "Garden" =p



But i think it looks better on white background though. So...

http://i252.photobucket.com/albums/hh35/Th..._Guy/Garden.jpg

Hope to have comments on this one.

Actually, I personally think it looks best on the black, just because the brown gives good contrast. On the white, you’d have the transition to the black then the white. Doesn’t have enough of a border that will make the sig blend in well with a white background because it’s “blocky” and there’s too much of it, considering it’s mostly meant as a border (might just be me though). I definitely think it looks good on black though. But, considering it is meant to be a post card type thing, I think it looks very good with the black and brown together (not meaning the black of the forum, but the actual black of the sig). ...If that makes sense...I’m more or less referring to it as if it was given to you as a card, you’d just have the card itself, without set forum background colors like white or black for it to blend in with...

The contrast for the sig (brown part) is nice though. I like the way the text is the same pattern as the background thorns, and Sora himself seems to be of the same pattern (though you can tell he’s placed on top of the pattern, he still blends in with it for the most part).

Anyway, I’m not sure how much sense I’m making. >.<. I like it though. Nice and innovative as always. Keep it up. =).

Thanks DB. Sora isn't pasted on top though lol. He is blended to the background, Instead I have to erased the parts of the floral parts ^^ But still I hope you like it.

Now work =]

Blythe



Testing out this eerie Horror "Movie Trailer" Effect =]

http://i252.photobucket.com/albums/hh35/Th...BlytheSig-7.jpg

Just incase you all want to see it in white =x

I liked this one because I made the text =] But I really want to receive some comments. =)

Just exploring. New Piece.



Still testing out with Texts. Not sure if it fits. I kinda like designing text then making sigs now lol. But I do hope to hear comments though ^^

Edit : I made some amendments onto this one.



Hope its better >_<

Please give some comments ._.

3rd Blythe Sig.



I'm getting addicted to self create Text hehe. Another Text Created by myself How you all like it =)

But I really do hope for comments ._. Since I do not know how am I doing >_<

Sig #1 ("I Love You More Than Ever"): I don't really have too much to say on this one other than I like the text in the top right corner with the blood splatter-ish brushes.

Sig #2: Definitely think the second one is better. Without having looked at the second one, I couldn't really see what the two stocks around the text "Blythe" was supposed to be. The second one is definitely better in my opinion, because you can see the stocks. I'm assuming the text is the same (big or small), but I think I like the smaller size of that particular text the best.

Anyway, the sig has a nice design to it. =).

Sig #3: It looks fine as a sig, but I'm not too fond of it (not quite to my own personal taste). It's not bad though. The text certainly looks fine. =).

Thanks DB I'll Take Note =) Thanks for the precious Comments.

Two new signatures =D



The Violinist

I was intending to test out good border for it. But ends up Doing more SIG then Border lol.





Blythe : Nightmare



Fourth of Blythe Siggy. I am very satisfied with this one myself ^^ I think I really achieved on what I want this time lol. =)

Really Hoping For some Comments ^^

Your latest piece is quite probably your most visceral, dynamic, and fantastic work I've seen from you to date. You are definitely improving, but this one is just "woah". While, as I always say in MSN, the border could have been done better, the text is fantastic, and the effects and overall look are just stunning!

Great work. The violinist is also a good piece, the flowers adding a nice touch of contrast.

They're quite impressive. ^^

The Violinist is a really neat piece. Probably one of my favorites from your stuff. The Blythe sig is, as Rhad said, pretty dynamic, but I’m not sure I really like it. Seems to contrasted with the red...Sort of blinds. The text goes really well with it though.

I don’t have much else to say. Keep up the good work. =).

YOUR CURRENT ONE IS SO SCARY. D;

But I guess that's what you wanted, eh? <: D

I think the details you have on it work really well for the idea you're trying to pull through. I don't especially care for the text, since there's so many pixellated details. I'd like a more softened out grunge look to it.

CRAZY new sig. It looks great, I'm just not that big of a fan of huge sigs. I don't think u could pull off the frightening aspect of it tho if it was smaller, so props nonetheless

=o Thank You all! For sooo much comments.

I can see now why Grungy style can be a double edge sword o.o

Some people will like it others will not. Though I suppose I need to fix the pixellated Text(eventhough i sorta like it) but still its really really precious comments =D. And Laguna, I'll never though you will give me comments =ppp Lol.

Thanks everyone ^^ I'll keep trying again =D

Update =]

New siggy.

I really like the looks of this one ^^ I got the outcome the I actually wanted.





Guardian Angel

Though It don't really look very special either. But still I think I like it =)

Really hope for Comments still though Please ^^

You know what, I actually like this one. The wings look cool. The Avatar itself should have a different coloured border. Maybe some sort of green or yellow to match the angel bloke. Maybe a green and yellow one.

I seriously love your latest one. There isn't a single thing I'd change about it. Really, really nice work, Koala!

Updates, few new pieces.



Gankutsuou



A sure to lose Battle Piece against Laguna



Cosmic Galactica


Nothing Much. But I do hope for comments as usual. =)

That first one is really nice! It has a great wet paper / water color feel to it...Looks very Japanese in style. It’s perfect. ^^.

Already gave comments for the sig battle piece. It’s not a bad piece at all, just in comparison with Laguna’s it doesn’t have that “wow” factor.

The third is a nice concept, but it’s terribly hard to see the stock to the right. The only way I can even see it properly is if I try dragging it so that it’s highlighted, otherwise it’s very dark and most of the details are missed. It might look better on white, but I still think you could probably try to make it brighter while still keeping the same amount of contrast. Other than that it’s good.

Nice work Koala, keep it up! =).

Update. My Fifth Blythe sig.



Blythe : The Fairy Fire

Thanks Db for your comments ^^ I'll take note and do the edits =)

Meanwhile I hope for comments on this one.

Dude all your new sigs looks GREAT. The latest Blythe sig looks badass, and the Gankutsuo sig looks awesomeee

Your stuff really is quality, I'm just a tad surprised at your battle sig though because for whatever reason, there wasn't any real creative wow effect that you put into most sigs (if ull allow me to say that). It was cute and looked nice, but I always saw your sigs as inspiration to ME as to how to create them.

We talked bout that "out of border" style and stuff, those ideas all came from your stuff haha, we'll have to have a rematch tho cause these new sigs are absolutely awesome. for real

To be truthful lol. I thought I'll challenged a game sig because I'm not used to games. I got lost by what game to pick so yeah xD I sort of can't make sigs when there is a fixed theme on me. Gankutsuou is the first request I've done. From Tony lol. Other then that. All of it is when I come across somethings. Lol. But LW your recent works are all good trust me and very original. And seriously I won't even know you got inspired by me because they are so different lol.

But I kept doing the out of border or no border is because lol... I am seriously horrible with Borders xD

So yeah. Though if you want. I could send you my photoshop files through msn. Or Uploads.

That_yux_guy@hotmail.com =p

Update =]



Blythe - Thorns

Just playing with it lol. Wasn't really a neat piece. Experimenting. But yeah Still like for some comments.

How multi-colored the sig is, plus the way you added the text (albeit hard to see at first) is really nifty. Not too big a fan of the newest one though, to be honest...Can't really pinpoint what turns me off about it though. >.>

Thanks DB I was thinking of destroying that whole piece. Was trying to do something fancy. But yeah, can see that its awfully failed.

Mean while I'm deciding to revise back my previous design and make new ones using the same design.



Melancholy - The Gothic Lolita Metamorphosis

Hope you all Like it. I know I really do =) The hardest thing about this design is that "black vortex" feeling. The vortex covering the girl's face was on purpose btw =)

This design is one of my favourite ^^

Hope to hear comments =)

The only thing I don't like too much on this last one is that the pink Melancholy text seems sort of low quality in comparison to the red text, which is nice and sleek. I like how the stocks go in with the sig though.

Keep up the good work. ^^

Thanks DB I'll think about that...

Mean while somehow a major Update.



Dream Scape

While still revising the style. I ran out of ideas for this piece's text. So yeah...

Mean while i worked on another piece the very same day.

and out come 4 different version.


Distortion Version 1

Distortion Version 2

Distortion Version 3

Distortion Version 4

I really like the outlooks of distortion though. Especially the 1st and 4th one.

Meanwhile I am thinking of revising the clean cut style of "The Violinist". =)

There you go... I know they are horrible but I do hope for comments.

Dream Scape is a nice one. Even without the text, it's a beautiful piece of art. =). On the other hand, I'm not too big on the Distortion ones, though I do like the text you use...

I think the very last Distortion piece is the best, just because the colors 1. contrast the best, 2. make the image most prominent, 3. Isn't as cluttered as the others.

I don't know if I like the text though, something about it just seems "unfinished", i dunno. The piece is okay I don't think it's one of your better ones though

The colors and abstract style is there, but I think some more effects would be nice. Some kinds of radial blurs, gradient, or something to kind of make the background flow together more around the central image would be nice. Can't wait to see more stuff though!

Thanks DB Thanks Laguna. I'll keep in mind.

Mean while updating two pieces.



Splatter, this one is done when I ask to if I could use his background that he make for a sig. Lol Ends up couldn't really see his background xD

This was made before Distortion

And Also

A new sig I've made.



No law. Kinda like it, though it looks weird. And I'm really lazy to fix it lol... But yeah DO post comments. ^^ I needed them =)

Recently I'm into Black and White text for some reason Lol.

It's kind of odd seeing that red flower in No Law, especially when most of the rest is black/white (save for some bits near the text). Overall I think it's a bit too cluttered or something...I like the general design though.

The text in Splatter is really cool. Not fond of the rest of it though...

Good work though, Koala. ^^

Just a little update



Fall of the Blood Blossom.

I reallllllly am satisfied with this piece haha ^^

I think I really portrayed out the image i wanted. Just that I couldn't find a good font which will give me the correct "Ancient Chinese Medallion" feel lol. So yeah, the text is horrible xD

But I think I do well too. Eventhough still lost to LW, but i think i did well overall =)

Edit : Comments Please! =)

I thought yours was really good, but I'm not a fan of the serpent you put right in the middle. It just seems like one thing too much to me, and sort of throws off the rest of it. I'm not too keen on the text either (well, the quote is fine), but I don't know how to explain why I don't like it. Something about it just seems off. Maybe it's that it looks slightly grainy in places, instead of "clean cut". I dunno. =/.

But yeah. Really really nice piece overall. Great work. =).
