I think you missed my points, ShunNakamura.

The Rogue one is not so much better because it is still just part of an image. If the rogue ended at the knees, it would have been a good idea to either construct his legs and use him as you did, or scrap the idea and use the rogue in a more contained signature. A transparent signature is too open for an incomplete image. What you have fits more into a banner rather than just standing alone.

As for the cowgirl signature...no, you are missing the other half of the moon. Cutting out half of an image looks strange and out of place:

You can see what I'm saying, yes? A full, uncut moon is best.

The En Garde one still misses a bit. An image to illustrate the advice:

The walls still do not match in heights; the lighting on the walls are uneven and do not match up, not by any angle. If the light is coming from the front of the image, the darker tones of the side walls would end at the top of the darker brown on the back wall. Also, the shadows of the text and the character would also stretch out behind them, rather than at any angle. Consistency goes a long way.

I doubt I can construct the legs... It was hard enough to add a shirt to the girl in my current sig(her vest didn't cover as much as I would prefer). I doubt I could make a persons legs.

hmm.. prehaps... however, I never planned the image with a full moon to be visible on it. And you are the only one who has commented on it that way. That and I know I picked up cutting the moon off elsewhere. I'll go read around, likely I did too hard of a chop off or some such.

Can you be a bit more specific? is it still the back wall that is too short? etc. Or is it because I didn't cut it into a trasnparancy like last time?

anyways I will work on the lighting.. but me and it don't like each other llast I checked .

Edit---

Any better now?

It is still a bit too tall[on the side] from what you have drawn,

[Genius Lynx]

I meant your lighting on the walls was wrong. If you look are your previous versions of the same signature, there is a gradient of light and dark on the walls. Everything below the red lines should be all the similar in how dark they are because of how the lighting works, while it lightens up above the red lines.

[ShunNakamura]

Ahh... I see... Well I will go fix that up then

Anyways An update on my poster it looks like this so far. and yeah, I know ugly tree.

[Owen Macwere]

who said the tree is ugly, no it is very good, and I like that wolf in the moon, you did a great job there. but the tree track (or however you spell that0_o) needs you to work on it alittle bet more. nice poster, good work.

Thanks(almost said tanks ) but the tree trunk is what I was referring to. I just can't seem to get it right.

Edit-- I will be posting a seperate thread on it in a moment(rather then hijacking my sig thread for my poster, I will put it in art to get more critique. So look Here for it.
