CnC this guys

 

First off' date=' stick with one focal/render, you are not nearly good enough to get multiple to go together correctly

The backgrounds colors would indicate coloring on the renders that isn't there because obviously the large blue areas have to be glowing since there is no darker part to them, this is also kind of a hint to stop using these type of backgrounds

The yellowish area under the wing on the left is rather bad

The yellow fog around the left focal's legs completely take him out of this setting

Left focal's art style does not fit in with the rest of the sig

The right focal is far too much of a drawing to be used with the rest of the sig, I suggest not using yugioh renders ever for this reason

The environment doesn't even make sense with them, why are they standing on this metallic structure in the middle of this blue and black universe, what is the left focal even standing on

No flow, the left focal is going one way, the right focal is going another way, and the c4d is going in a whole other direction

No blending, none of the artstyles match, there was no attempt to make the focals look like the belonged in this environment

No depth, there is absolutely no distance between the focals or the c4d or the background, they are just all right in your face

No lighting, both focals have light coming from different directions, c4d has lighting coming from another direction as well, and this, what I can only assume to be, light from the bottom right doesn't fit with any of them

Text is terrible, the positioning is bad and should be much more subtle, the font is far too artsy for the sig's style, and the colors make it far too plain and unnatural

 

I'd also suggest just not using text until you get the rest down

First one:

Overcontrasted as hell, where are the shades and highlights, it's just red, black, and yellow, and version 2 is just even more overcontrasted

Background is very empty on the left, right side had something started but ended before it could be anything more than a space filler

Effects shouldn't be covering up the focal like that, it detracts from the focal and makes it look low quality and gives it nasty ridges

The fractal c4d kills of any hope of flow since it shoots off in every which way

The brushes are rather useless and don't add anything to the sig

No depth, it's like he's part of a red wall

No flow, as I said before, the fractal killed it

No blending, it all being red makes the differences in the focal to the background stand out more and make the focal look a lot more unnatural

No lighting, background is just red and black with nothing discerning where light comes from

Text is aweful, this gundgy font is terrible for almost everything, position is more like a label, and the color just adds to the overcontrasted look

 

Second:

Background is just this grundged up smuding without anything really there

All the smudged things that still have some unsmudged parts look bad, particularly those over the focal which are making it look very bad

Background is empty

No lighting, there is no direction which light is coming from

No depth, there's no distance between him and the background

No blending, he does not fit in with the background's style at all

Text is horrid, color choice is rather flat and boring, positioning is made as a label rather than really being any bit useful, and font is really bad for this style

 

I'd also suggest not using text until you got the rest down

hey guys. do you like my new tag??

 

Render from Yin

Flat out' date=' the background is terrible, white with all these orange sparkle things all over is very unattractive; I'd suggest using stocks for the backgrounds

The sparks all over the focal don't make sense, they stop and cut off at the edges of the focal and, though clearly lights, give off no light

No lighting, there is no source of light at all

No depth, it's flat with no distance between anything

No flow, it doesn't go into any direction, just spreads out everywhere

No blending, there was no attempt to make the focal fit in

The text is not good for this style, is far too large, is a bad color for this sig, is pretty blurry, and the blue around it is pretty bad; I'd suggest not using text until you get better, I can guarantee no one will rip your sigs

 

Pretty cool but dont take anything Problematica says personally KAY?

 

I never make any personal comments, all of them are based purely on the work and what I can interpret from it and previous work I remember
