Mr Bohannan

Alright, this is a very simple and beautiful work. I actually enjoy the fact that you stuck with mainly grey and then for the cherry added the other colour. Am I fan of that specific colour? Not really and I think there are nicer colours to use for such standout, but tastes are different. Like the merge of the two renders, very nice. Text is good as well, although Im not a fan of the effects put on the "Rainhart" part. Overall it is a job well done! Rating: 7.5/10

Oh yes! Although you could say that the signature seems quite busy, but for my taste it is perfect. Nicely placed renders to make the shout out to the trio. Love the grunge effect if that's what it is. The only thing Im not really a fan of is the font choice. It's kinda ok when it comes to the shorter names, but the players name on the left, can't really read what it is. Other than that it is a good piece of work, I like it! Rating: 8/10

Even in his wildest dreams Matt could not imagine that he would be the top Rookie in the league as he first hand saw some more skilled players in VHLE, but as they say - it's only 10% talent and 90% hard work. The season started great for Matt and after 26 games Matt is currently the top rookie with 48 points and with every game he not just fights for his team, but also to keep his position until the end of the season. In 26 games, Matt has acquired 48 points in total, only 4 goals short to have on average 2 goals per game. While London was being slandered for being a poor looser, this season London is showing that they are more than that and actually is a very strong team which to keep in mind when looking at the strength of the leaders and Matt with his other rookie players will make sure that it stay that way and no one dares to cross London!

1. We are 7-4-1 in our first 12 games played, how do you feel about our start to the season? How has your player performed? Oh I feel great, but cannot let my guard down. Usually seasons start good for Matt, will see how it's gonna go and my player is performing fantatic. 2. We currently have 4 players in the top 10 rookies, does this show that our young guns are performing well or are the rest of the leagues rookies not performing as expected? Tbf I don't care what is the reason as that gives the team good motivation. 3. Our goaltender, Cole Pearce, is not in the top 10 for save percentage or goals against average. Is this a bump in the road, new blood jitters, or bad defense? Whatever it might be, as long as he get back on his feet after each game, he will make it. 4. If you could recall TPA at any time without having to pay, what the first attribute you would recall and what would you spend that TPA on instead? Hard to tell, because I focused all my TP on main stats that I need. 5. Favourite type of bread (sliced white, baguette, flat bread, etc.) and what do you like to eat it with (ham, salami, tomato, etc)? Rye Bread with some piece of cheese! 6. Hot tea, iced tea or neither? Ice Coffee. Recently learned how to make one at hom - perfect.

This is a very, very nice one as it gives me that superstar, spot moment vibe. It just feels like he's on the ice, just scored and all the lights are on him. Very nice highlights making it easy to see the layering and making it a little bit more in dept. as you can see what's in front, what's in back etc. Very nice Jersey Swap. The only thing I am not a fan of is the text. I cannot really clearly read the name oft he player. The font is not ugly or nothing, just has bit more effect that makes it unclear, at least for me.

Hmm, I will be honest with you - it is hard to understand how good or bad is this piece, because I dont see much. Im not saying you have to put hunderds of confusing elements, but this one seems very simple, but not bad looking at all. Im not a fan of the bottom text and would love to have one in the empty space. The Jersey sawp is made very good tho and that part is good one. Hope to see more and improved pieces over this one.

"Finally!" Matt thought to himself as he was sitting in the dressing room all in brand new London United uniform! It was the night of the very first game for Matt in VHL and he was mentally and physically prepared. The game was against Helsinki Titans. Helsinki Titans definitely was not the team to beat this season as they on paper would be on the same level where London was, so they were perfect opponents to start off the season. As Matt saw in the practices then the team will have to compensate their puck control and skating skills with the shooting skills and luckily they did! In a close game London took a victory with score 4:3. London kept it's momentum for two more games and then the first loss came against Malmo Nighthawks. The score was only 1-2 in favour of Malmo, so the whole team set their heads to win Malmo in the next game, but unfortunately, although the fight was hard and close, it ended with an overtime loss. So close, but so far. London had to more loses until getting another win. First week went quite the same way, back and forth with wins and loses, leaving London 3rd in European Conference and 5th in Overall standings. Matt managed to get 16 points in the 11 games they played and is tied up with his teammate Nils as the top Rookies of the season. First week has turned out well and Matt is happy for the great chemistry that he has found with his 2nd line-mates.

1. The season is beginning, what are you most excited about and what are you the most nervous about? To be fair both can be answered with the same answer - Im the most excited and nervous about finally stepping on the VHL ice for the very first time! 2. London drafted goaltender Cole Pearce with their first round pick, what are your thoughts on this? Pearce with fill a hole we had in goaltending, what do you expect from them in their first season and are you looking forward to seeing what they bring to the team? I dont care that they drafted the goalie with their first pick, because goalie will be depending on the rest of the team anyways, so while you have good defence and offence the order does not matter. I expect everyone to do their job well! 3. No moves were made in free agency, do you think we missed out on anyone? What are your thoughts on the current roster? I think that there were no moves to be made because London is obviously on rebuild and is getting the new talents, so oldies can stay where they are! 4. What are your thoughts on the new supplemental tpe task? Will you be using this as part of your weekly capped tpe or are you satisfied with the current options? Must have missed something as I dont know what is the new supplemental TPE task, will have to check. When it comes to options, ye Im satisfied. I have my little routine and I just follow it each week! 5. What is your favourite type of chocolate? (Dark, white, milk, raspberry, orange, etc.) I would say that my favourite chocolate is milk chocolate. My favourite chocolate bar would be Tupla. 6. Are you an outdoors person or an indoors person? What’s your favourite activity to do either outdoors or indoors? By a large margin I am an indoors person, but I am not afraid of outdoors activities as I grew up with them. It's more about how I am as a person, I need to do something with a goal, not just cluelessly go places or walk around.

Very, very nice pieces! Looking at them it gives me that stylish artistic vibe and the lightening of the renders that you have done are some quality work and fits so well together. The background colours allows the signature to pop out in a very nice way. Font choice is spot on as well as it, same as the background, is in that free crazy brush style. Love that you have decided to give the whole team some high quality signatures to spice up their profile. Would love to have one like this myself! Good job! Review: 9/10

I would guess this is one of your first attempts in signature making, so I will just point out some things that could easily be improved for the next time. Starting with the background - I understand that you wanted to put the city in the background, but I am not sure that is a good choice and I would rather you find something different that fits with the player and the colours. You could literally google "blue white background" and see what is there. The Jersey swap could use some blending options, so that it looks little bit more natural. The text...I wont talk about the text font choice and the effects of the text, but just about the position. You could have moved the text bit more away from the frame and centre it a little bit in the area between the border and the player. Rating: 5/10

Matt Avens finally got the chance to have practice and some time on ice with his new teammates. It was important for him to see the skill level of the players he's gonna be playing together in order to understand what he can do to help the team. Although he heard some bad things about Londons past and as a fellow Londoner he knew about it as well, he was hopeful after seeing his new team on ice. You could say that London is going through a little rebuild and most of the players are fresh and green which is good for the future and maybe even not that distant future as everyone is eager to prove themselves. At first the team looked impressive as Matt got on the ice after everyone else and saw them shooting puck at the goalie. All the players definitely showed good scoring skills. Truth to be told might have looked like that also because of the young goalie that team has. When it came to attack drills, that's where Matt started to see some issues in his teammates. First of all the skating skills were not top notch for most of the guys. Some had issues with acceleration, some had issues with reaching good top speed, so there was definitely space to improve. Skating a side, the biggest disappointment for Matt was his teammates puck handling skills. They might be good shooters, but the puck handling was lacking a lot which basically neutralizes the point of being a good shot if you lose the puck before it's in the attacking zone. Defensive understanding was quite good, so that was a plus. Considering the age of most of the players in the team gives hope that they still can improve on these skills, but that also means that the chances to go against more skilled teams will be a challenge.

We managed to draft some Kings from last seasons roster, as well as some returning faces from seasons past. What are you hoping to learn more about this season in the M? Im glad to hear that! Wanted to say "Hello" to my first drafted team as Im about to have my first season in VHL! I want to learn by the end of the season that you got that cup! Who is your much-too-early pick for the Cup? MEXICOOOO! What is a fun-fact about yourself? Went to US to play hockey, but ended up playing for my home country VHL team in my home city! Dolphins or Sharks? (The animals not the sports teams.) Dolphins, always! Will the Kraken make the playoffs? Have no idea! Whats something that you're obsessive about that others may not be? Thankfully Im not obsessive about anything, I dont think being obsessive is a good thing, even for the smallest reasons.

Nice, this is definitely looking prestine and I love to see a different type of graphics than just signatures. I mean technically this could be counted as a signature, but that's not the point. The draft banners are made very clean and gives that real NHL graphic feel. Im not a fan of the size as it gives me the impression that due to the size of the banners you had quite some space to fill out, so some bits for me are not hitting that homerun. For example the team logo square, all good, but the square is quite big therefore the coloured logo seems to not take enough space, even with the bigger one as a background. Also due to the text box size the line between the position and the name of the previous team does not look nice and I would say that without that filler, just text in one or another corner would have probably looked better. But all together, well done! Review: 9/10

Hey, what can I say - not bad at all. Of course it is not a masterpiece what some people put out here, but for someone, Im assuming, who does graphics just for this league or as a hobby, I can see the work put into it. Maybe the whole thing is little bit too red and adding other colours would have been nice, but in general the composition is there and doesn't suck. The jersey swap is made quite well, at least in my books. I see that you tried to work on a good background and while it's not the worst, it definitely is not the best, but the idea could work with better execution. Kinda wish the metal plate background and the team line would blend together bit better. The text is quite large, but clean. Personally don't like the size of the piece, especially if it was like a signature. Review: 7/10

The time was over, the time in Stockholm was over! It was a good season and you couldn't ask for a better ending, but it finally did come to end. Matt packed his bags, said his goodbyes to his teammates, some of them were moving to their new homes as well, so he knew he will meet them on the ice next season, just on opposite side, and got on the plane to fly home to London. After arriving home he did not get in contact with his team or the management, he just went home to spend some time with his family and friends. As he did not take a break during the Christmas and New Years week, he took a week off last week and put the training aside. Now when the self given holiday is over, it is time to get back to training and get back to get serious. Matt did not really follow VHL as he was focused on where he played and that really showed, but after paying a little bit more attention he got told that apparently London is a team that is one of the worst in league. Truth to be told it did not feel nice, but coming in as a champ, Matt has all the confidence that he needs to keep working hard and maybe putting London on the map. If not this season, then next season or season after that. No matter what it will be another hard season and hopefully one with a lot of rewards!

1. We are champions!! how do you feel? Feels good to get my first Trophy and with Vikings! 2. what are your plans for your day with the cup? Nothing really, Im happy we won and I got to lift the cup, but I dont plan nothing with it haha. 3. Did you expect us to pull away with the sweep? Not at all. 4. Did your player break any personal goals this season? Personal - all of them! As this is the first career season then he set the goals. 5. Are you expecting to play in the VHL next season? if so for what team? Yes, playing for, apparently, biggest looser - London 6. Is there anything Thad and I can do to make Stockholm a better experience for future Vikings? For me it was a great experience. I do not think that you can do better than winning the season!

This one is a nice work indeed as some have already mentioned. It is clean and although not sure what is the exact purpose of it, it could definitely go as a poster or banner. Nice jerseys swap, nice background, like the colour as well, so overall very nice. The only thing is the font that you used for San Diego as the D and I in "Diego" first of all goes over each other and also the D looks more like a P, so in general it's weird, so I would probably look for a similar type of font, but one that does not have such weird effect. Review: 8/10

Uuuuu yes, I love this! The neony style is sick. Remind me of 80's and disco. A lot of old stuff is coming back into trends and to be fair I could see this to be something to come back with it. I dont even want to look for any faults, cuz it's just cool af, but I kinda have to. Sadly, but yet again, another signature that struggles a little bit with the text. The main one is understandable and visible, but I would like to see it bit more clearer, than it is right now, because the pink part is way too bright and makes it look overdone. And the secondary text - well I dont know what it says as I cannot properly read it. Rating: 8/10

Dang are you flying home from the opposite side of the world or your purposely are taking the ferry to get drunk over the night? haha

Deal!

First of all I, Matt Avens, would like to say that me and Sirdsvaldis does not share the same view about the team or lifestyle. I never wanted to share my food with him and I never found it to be professional for GM's to give him booze. But hey, you don't choose your family and you stick with them until the end and that is exactly what we did these playoffs. Not a star performance but still eleven points in nine games, so more than 1 point on avarage per game which is totally fine considering the time given on the ice. Team did exceptionally well, running over Rome Gladiators like a train taking all four wins in four games. I think we also answered the question of who would win a fight of Roman Gladiator and a Viking. Vikings would deeeeeestroooy gladiators! The emotions are still surreal and it will take a moment to come back to earth after getting the first cup ever in his career, but fear not, this is only beginning of the amazing career that Matt is gonna have from now on! @FrostBeard

1. We are tied 1-1 as of right now in our series, what do we need to adjust to pull away and win this series. Wouldn't say we need adjustments, I think we just need to stay focused and not make mistakes! 2. Are you confident entering the playoffs? Always! My war paint is already applied! 3. who does your player model their game after? I dont have no one specific in mind to be fair. 4. Where is your favourite place to be in the world? Home in my bed! Haha 5. coolest place you have ever been? Not really a traveller so dont have nothing fancy to answer this question. 6. what is the 'weirdest' food combination that you like? Sweet chock chip cookie with tomato juice

Alrighty, as soon as I saw the threads name I had to go and check out what my fellow countryman has made. Let me start of with saying that looking at the piece, unfortunately, I cannot look at it as a signature as for it to be a signature type of piece it lacks things. What I see it is a jersey swap and for that I can give you rating because it is really not a bad swap to be fair. Of course the main team logo could have been blended in with the jersey better to not feel it's that obvious of a sawp, but that's about it for me. If we try to look at it as a signature then I would suggest you to work on your font choice, because for now I dont think they are the best ones. Also, not sure is it beginners thing or something, but I would use stroke in rare situations. Rating: 7/10 for the swap

Hahha, okey, I see you! Let me start with a fact that will make a lot of people hate me - not a Star Wars fan. I wont give you points for the video editing as it's nothing original and Im sure if I would love to I could find such template ready to be rendered with my own text, but I will definitely give you points for the creative originality and that outro PS exploding Hulk Hogan! Overall I find it cool and funny! Raiting: 8/10

The time has finally come and Stockholm Vikings have secured their place in the upcoming VHLE playoffs and Matt cannot wait for it. With a strong and solid finish at the end of the season Stockholm Vikings are one of the favourites to take all of the season. The season could have been better as Matt hit some cold strike, but hopefully by the time when the team is getting on the ice, the cold strike will be long gone. Matt is ready for the fight and ready to destroy anyone who comes near him. Also a fun fact, Matt, managed to finish his regular season shot amounts at 420 which he find funny. Also sad fact that Matt was pushed out of top10 score list which is a little bummer, considering that Matt promised to beat his secret rival, but in the end Matt fell behind when his competition continued to grow. Now lets wait and see how Matt is gonna be doing in the Play-Offs and he would not be against opportunity to be the best.
