Nice sig, Imp, but it looks stretched on my screen. Original image width is 400px(?) but it's stretching to 542px...
Is this intentional? |

| yeah my sig took all of 2 mins to make =D i will probabbly have a propper go at it when i get in work tomorrow, btw when creating a sig from scratch.. do you lay it out, e.g write ideas down about what you want it to look like or do you just plain out say... blah blah i want this on it i want that on it? |

Basically my idea evolves in the thick of the fight... I mostly don't start with exact, cleared out image in my mind... Like this: I started googling images on Anthony Hopkins... Found this one, was great enough.. So I started building op a background, tried some brushes..
In most of my projects, 75% of the actions I do, layers I blend, Pieces I paste, are re-worked afterwards cause I see mistakes in them...
Even when I'm satisfied with a design, and post it here, a day later, when I look at it again, I see errors I didn't saw before.... (common syndrome: blinded by being busy to long with the same image)..

nice work btw imp
andy in my opinion a good sig is one that just comes out as you work if you over think it,it usually ends up bad there is a few on here who dont think sig making is a good use of photoshop i disagree i think sig making can teach you alot about blending and effects, oh and try not to get stuck on a style change it up a little make it fun |
