911 "Jakes" JPs Signature Showcase!

[911 JP]

Hi there Wrestlezone,

I have just taken up Sig making and have created this thread to showcase my Sigs. I havent had much experience in Photoshop at all, but because I am just starting out I though those in this section of Wrestlezone could help me out by giving me advice and critiquing my work.

Here is my first Sig:

Please comment, critique and give me any advice with making Sigs in the future.

Thankyou.

Hey dude, good to see you opened your own thread. As I promised, I'm here to help, and I'm sure others are too. Well you're first sig...isn't that good straight up. It's just a black background with a big and small picture of CM Punk. That's okay though, because sigmaking is really complicated and it takes time to get good. Plus, my first sig sucked too, trust me. Didn't even know how to put some color.

It's good to follow a tutorial for your first time. Also, you might wanna download some brushes, fonts, and C4D's. Go to these websites that FutureShockWWE provided in another thread.

sigtutorials.com helped me a lot. So I recommend you go there first. Well there you go man. You're ready to go. Need more help? Just PM or post on here and I'll be happy to help. Goodluck!

Not overly happy with this one but have started using Renders. I will keep practicing and post Sigs that have atleast minimal improvement.

Yes it is on a plain old black background but I was more or less having fun with it. i am happy with how it turned out, I tryed some new techniques and was happy with the final product. I chose to do a diva sig for something different and was quite enjoyable whilst making it, I will try to make backgrounds in the future but this was just an enjoyable sig to make

Please comment.

I enjoy the overall concept of the sig. However I see one problem that I would reccomend fixing. The word Maryse is incredibly hard to read in front of the aqua curve in the top right corner. I would either change the curve color or possibly changed the text to something bolder. Also it seems that there is almost a circular eraser area right above the left shoulder of the Maryse on the far right. Overall it is a good sig, and with a proper background could be a really good sig. Plus Maryse helps it.
