This is what I did just copying the image into Photoshop. 1. Fill a layer with the colour of the background on top and set it to hue @ 50% opacity. 2. Make a merged copy of the sig and put it on top. Smudge the bg into the render. 3. Exposure Layer, Offset: 0.015, Gamma: 0.9 4. A few red dots of different sizes with a Soft Brush set on Color Dodge. 5. Merged copy > Filter>Other>High Pass @ 10px. Soft Light at 60% Opacity.

Love it. Love the colouring, great text, great lighting.

No one said you can't wear two

We should make a spreadsheet Everyone deserves a sig.

Then who voted for me

Definitely your best, great work. Love the colouring.

The thing with trying to go for a chemistry approach is that this is a short tournament. You don't have time to try all line combos, you only have an opportunity to throw the best players possible at the opposition. I predict USA finishes 4th.

great text, nice bg, nice fx. render could use a bit more blending, but very sharp sig.

Effort: 2/2 - absolutely Look: 2/3 - big improvement. Not sure how you'll figure out lighting but I'm sure you will. Keep it up. Creativity: 1/1 - hell yeah Final: 5/6

Effort: 2/2 - yep, good job Look: 2.5/3 - some good elements here. render should usually stand out a bit more. I'd have to disagree with lobo about the text rule of thumb. It's not often that text isn't on top of the player. But the principle remains, the render is supposed to be the main focal point. Creativity: 1/1 - very nice Final: 6/6

I think it was meg.

render effects are nice, but the bg may be a bit too plain.

Welcome aboard man, I'll make you a sig soon, any player you'd prefer?

Accept

I don't like the blue on his glove but other than that it is great

Effort: 2/2 - Enough Look: 2.5/3 - this deserves a 6 but is borderline. Really nice render fx. Background is weak and is a bit too washed out. Pretty nice stock work. Creativity: 1/1 - sure thing Final: 6/6

Effort: 2/2 - The work you've been pumping out as of late is mad. Look: 2.75/3 - Very close obviously, but a few little nitpicks. Render could have used some more blending on the left, especially the yellow line that looks like a small mistake in the cut. Colouring is a bit too intense, but overall excellent piece. Creativity: 1/1 - maybe some new text next time? Final: 6/6

Effort: 2/2 - multiple versions after taking advice, great job Look: 2.5/3 - Yeah lighting is a bit flat, but your stuff is really starting to come together. Keep 'em coming. Creativity: 1/1 - for sure Final: 6/6
