I really envy the people who make GFX, so I tried my hand at them. //; Id like to know which areas I can improve on, since I'm more or less a beginner (as you can tell). I really would like to be able to do good graphics, and I hope you can help me reach that goal;
I'm sorry there aren't so many, I put all my effort into each one and they take me quite a bit of time //; I get tired afterwards too //; but I hope it's enough to get some critique.

Lol, I'm liking the Yusei and Aki sigs. Don't see those often in these kind of anime forums

first image is pretty good. however your lightsource is coming from the wrong direction. notice the shadows on the render. You can either change direction of the lightsource your become familar with your burn tool. Otherwise a simple, but nice sig.

a good attempt at flow. however, overall brightness is too much. lower it down and throw in some gradient filters. your also lacking any real depth here.

this sig has potential for smudging, id look up a tut for that and practice. otherwise its rather plain.

you'll improve the more you practice. find tuts to help you learn more about what all you can do with photoshop and what tools are available to you.

Thanks for taking your time to give me some C&C Drahcir!
I can't find any good tuts so I did some experimenting with this batch. What's a good website for tuts?

Some sigs don't blend too nicely and use lighting on focal points and use the pen tool to give your sig an extra touch like the sig request i made recently for someone

I think yours are better than mine...

As long as you are proud of what you do...whatever the outcome is...it will turn out good...I used to ask questions & opinions too...

It's better to have originality or your personal touch in every sig you make...tutorials are there just as a guide....don't feel afraid to experiment (I don't follow tuts, I just put in together lot's of renders, brush strokes, layer filters anything to make my sig unique, even if it turns out messy & ugly, at least it's my work...& for me it's beautiful!)

You'll get better soon!...Keep on experimenting!....

If you want to see some of my sigs...follow this link: [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

The first one is pretty cool. But the second one has too much light. If you use too much light, it won't look so good. The last one is pretty good too. I liked how you used 2 pictures, one fading and the other not.

My favorite one is the first one. It is really well done.
I hope you make more!
