    First Sig No Tut

    Here is my first sig that doesn't follow a full tutorial.. Not so good, but I didn't know what to do.

    Kind of, it's my first sig that didn't follow a tutorial. Like the one in my current sig follows a tutorial. I learned everything from tutorials and just put it in one.

    Lose the boarders. If anything stick to standard or cinematic black boarders. This simple technique will showcase your work much better and more professionally looking than your current boarders. In some, if not most, boarders are not necessarily essential and I would advice you to take that into consideration also when and if you go back to fix this signature or when you make your next.

    The size is a little displeasing as my taste is more towards bigger canvases only because they usually require a little more thought and work and in the end usually look better. For your next piece I would recommend increasing your canvas size to roughly 300-400px by 100-200px.

    The text is also a little hard to read because the red clashes with the background color. For future work I would advice sticking to a simple color scheme and maybe grabbing a color out of your piece to use as a font color.


    There are a few other things I can point out but I won't right now seeing as from experience its easier to focus on one thing at a time. So try and work on a few of those areas and you may even fix a few of your other flaws.

    Thanks for telling me all of that. I'll be sure to take ALL of it into consideration in my next signature. Also, probably fixing this one. Thanks
