Extremely late reply. (sorry)

I teached my 'style' myself.
Although I feel like it constantly changes. xD

You can get c4d's here: http://planetrenders.net/renders/index.php?cat=7


I totally forgot. lol

haha yeah trying to find some good forums with great gfx ers

Usual grudge work I see you using =P

Hmm, move the txt a bit more to the right and change the font color of "Representative Shikigami" to something rather than red.(ex. white)

Over all, that's all I can suggest to edit, since the rest is a matter of concept.

~It's simplistic but not boring, keep trying =)

About 60% of photoshop users are self taught, but tuts are like guidelines to us, you dont have to follow it through and through, just grasp the concept its try to teach and twist it to your own style. It's what I did lol

Sorry, I can't really teach you Flow, you'll have to just read through a lot of tutorials. Tutorials is where we all start and grasp the basics from, so don't avoid them =P

Hmm, sadly, it seems that it would look better without the C4D because 1) I can't really see it and 2) It looks like its only degrading the render's quality =/

The text is ok, not professionally put in placed, but its still ok ^_^
I can't find the tutorial for text placement but I found the font one, give it a quick look.

lol if you search for DHPD Shar youll see where i am

Well, it looks like its coming along pretty well so far.
Ok, what you can do in that empty space is either:
1-Use vectors or other brush effects to lightly and conveniently fill it.
2-Use a C4D (remember to place it in a flowing position in conjunction you your render)
~And/or~
3-Add the text title there. (more towards the bottom right)

After that, give the main render a little more effect to it. (ex. BG-Flame effect, glow effect etc. ;Mess around with the blending effects to get a result you like)

And also, try integrating some depth into the sig by adding lighting and darkness around where you think they should be placed or by slightly blurring the surroundings of your focus point(which is your render).
~Good Luck

There your entry is added and you seem to have already edited your post. ^^

Hahaha That's the voting thread lol.
You enter sigs in the 'entry' thread. ;P

But cuz you're new, I'll add it to that sotw. Ain't I great? ^^
