  1. Effort: 2/2 - lighting, stock work, text work etc, good job

     

    Look: 2.5/3 - honestly, it's just kinda boring. Nothing is bad but nothing stands out as great. renders like this don't often leave much room for creativity.Text is pretty cool.

     

    Creativity: 1/1 - very serene sort of style

     

    Total: 5.5/6

  2. Effort: 2/2 - I guess, you'll need more next week though.

     

    Look: 2.25/3 - the effect around the render isn't bad, but it needs more blending. More stocks would definitely help this sig. Next is the text. It usually won't work too well when it isn't touching the render. Pull it in more. And for fonts, rule of thumb is only use one unless the second one is much smaller (like in your current sig). 

     

    Creativity: 1/1 - yeah!

     

    Total: 5.25/6

  3. Effort: 2/2 - yep good amount of work done

     

    Look: 2.75/3 - I really like the idea here, but a few things are lacking. Text should never look like the top layer. I usually do text right after I put in my render, and then follow with stock work. This way it looks like it's part of the sig instead of slapped on. Also, try not to use the Layer Styles for shadows. If you need to give it some shadow, just brush behind it by hand, or make a clipping mask background from another part of the sig.

     

    Creativity: 1/1 - really cool stock work.

     

    Final: 6/6

  4. Effort: 2/2 - yep

     

    Look: 2.25/3 - yep, as lobo said, it's rarely a good idea to lower the opacity of the render. Cool stock work around his arm. Not sure if you saw it, but I made a post here: http://vhlsim.invisionzone.com/index.php?/topic/2501-jacks-guide-to-making-not-shitty-sigs/ with a bunch of the techniques I use in sigs, hopefully it will give you some ideas.

     

    Creativity: 1/1 - hell yeah, keep up the originality!

     

    Final: 5/6

  5. Effort: 2/2 - yep, especially with your photoshop hiatus

     

    Look: 2.5/3 - I still prefer your old stuff, but you're getting the hang of it again. Too much contrast overall, I don't know if that was a high pass or topaz but it's a little too much.

     

    Creativity: 1/1 - chyeah

     

    Final: 6/6
