Pretty sure I was the last one to use it and that was a year ago, quite rare indeed.

Well I SUPPOSE those are valid points.

@evrydayimbyfuglien What the fuck man, you ask several times for a seattle sig, I go on stream live and make you one (ignoring my own new player) and you don't even put it on. I demand satisfaction for my work dammit!

Two Frank sigs without lens flares? Am I thinking of the wrong person or something? Anyway, this is a really creative manip. The stock work isn't too overbearing and the pops of colour work really well. The text area might be a little bit jumbled and the contrast is a little bit off alls round but a few exposure layers and some slightly better blending could really turn this into something special.

A Frank sig without a lens flare? What is the world coming to? Seriously though, I like this. As Molholt eluded to I think having that BG colour changed to yellow instead of green could actually really make this pop and it would make the bottom edge match better. The blurring on your stocks could be adjusted a bit to create an illusion of death a bit more but they are relatively close. Text is sold, as are the render effects. Lighting could be added a bit more as the face is kinda dark right now. Overall, pretty good but a few adjustments could make it great.

We've all started somewhere. Trust me, you don't want to see what my first sigs looked like. The size is definitely too large. Personally I don't do anything large than 420x200 unless I really have something specific in mind. What isn't helping the size any is that everything is separated. Don't be afraid to have things overlap as it draws the eye to one place. Having the text and lens flare off in the corners distracts the eye from the render which should be the main focal point. try to work with different stocks and blending modes to really build up a BG and death rather than just slapping a few things together. Lastly, text is generally the hardest thing to master for anyone but what will help immensely is going simple. Don't try tow irk with crazy colours and fonts right now, go simple and perfect how to make it look really good. I almost never use advanced fonts because they tend to be a distraction. Sometimes keeping things simple helps make everything look better.

Text, effects, and BG work are all fantastic. Not even kidding those render effects are nearly giving me a stiff one. Unfortunately the piece is very dark and I feel like I need some strong lighting to really make the good elements pop. Right now everything is kinda cloudy and hard to see. Work with the bright end of your contrast spectrum and really make that render pop.

I like the idea behind this all but I feel like I can't see enough of it to really judge. The whole piece is far too dark, especially for the render and text being dark green. As strange as it sounds maybe invert the BG stocks so that the BG is mostly white instead of lack and you'd probably get a nice clean sig. Lighting is alright and text is great but the overall darkness is a major issue.

This is one exposure layer away from being a lot better. An exposure layer would make sure to balance everything out. As it stands the BG is too dark and the face is too bright so the contrast is way off. With that said your stock work is coming along and although the strokes on the text are kinda meh the overall text layout isn't too bad. Try to work with things that aren't strokes on text and it'll make it look a lot more proper.

I'm seeing a lot of things here that are very close to where you want them but not quite there. The blue and orange could work very well but I think the shade of orange you chose is slightly under-saturated for what you wanted to achieve. Your lighting is also very stark and nice but you placed the source on the wrong side of the render. All the light on his face (and in the BG) is on the right side but you placed the light on the left, it's visually confusing. Blending is alright and stock work is alright but just pay attention to the little things to really elevate your work.

Very creative and sexy as always; pretty sure that describes every sig you've ever made. I love the clean look of it all and the effects are fantastic. Normally I wouldn't like a sig this tin but it works well here. Lighting is absolutely spot on as well. If I were to get picky and find something to complain about I would say the yellow "border" could be a bit closer to the edge but that's really getting picky.

Nice, simple, and grungy, this works very well. I think the size might be a tad large so there is quite a bit of empty space but it's not a major problem really. I would also like to see a little more in regards to the BG as it just kinda falls off to pure black. Render and text effects are solid but slightly better lighting would really make them pop.

Shorter episode this week but that's alright. Recorded it on Saturday but posting today because I had ASG PT's last week. Answered questions from @der meister and @ADwyer87 and played an iconic CoD 4 Mission in Modern Warfare Remastered. *For Holik

But without you, who will push me to keep active so that I don't get passed! Plus, in my live sig I said you were my favourite member right now

Which team will win?: Team Der Meister Which Goalie will perform the best (Highest SV%)?: Greg Clegane Who will be 1st star?: Zach Parechkin

That moment when you forget goalies exist

Wanted to create a nice pair for the Captains so made a matching set for the two of them. CodCast is still getting recorded today but I’ll upload it next week. *For Sokolov

I have 0 Founder's Cups to my name, gotta grab the best chance I can haha

Any other questions? Gonna record this tomorrow although apparently I also have some all star stuff to get done.

@JardyB10 and I combined for 4:27 of ice time. Clearly we're the true MVP's.

I never got the questions from last week? I sent it in a little late but still

Motherfucker Sharpe should come to Saskatoon so that he can be closer to the Beketov agency that he loves so much

Just wanted to let you know that I downloaded this and put it on my phone so that I could listen to it on my way to work. I was laughing so hard at some points that it was hard to drive haha. Looking back I should have listened to it at a point where I could post a proper review and get points for it but whatever, it was enjoyable anyway.

Plus I've never won a Founder's Cup. If there was ever a cursed team, we may have just discovered it.
