As the title says. This is my first attempt of creating a signature, I know its not the greatest but this is my first... If you guys can just leave feedback? Like what types of Brushes or Fonts i should use? Also what inspired me of beginning to do this is you guys the GFXrs? You guys are extremely amazing at what you do. I mean like i see some AMAZING signatures & i think to my self & say " WOW! these people are talented " " I WANNA LEARN THIS! Smile " & so yeah, My journey beginsSmile

Hey bro a start is a start.
For your first ever it's not that bad.
To set yourself up go to You must login or register to view this content.
Just type in "brushes", "C4D packs", "Effects", etc. and download them.
Go to You must login or register to view this content. to get different fonts.
This will give you a good setup.

As for the sig I like the fact that your focal stands out.
Maybe stay away from putting an outter glow on your render cause it takes away from the blending.
I would lower the opacity on your text.
Blur the BG a bit.

So go search for some tuts on You must login or register to view this content. Happy , You must login or register to view this content. , You must login or register to view this content.

Keep at it though bro.
I look forward to seeing more work from you.

And sorry for putting sooo much but trust me I could keep going lol and I just want to help.

Very good for first. Font & Your avatar is very good.

One thing you do want to work on is dimension, you'll see when you get better, but your stuff looks layered "as is everyones" but you want to make them intertwined.

Like have something from layer 2 look like it comes out and goes into layer 4. Making the picture look 3D. You can look at some stuff, and get ideas, but for your firsties :p very good Smile

Pretty much exactly what crazy said. It's also good to get some PSD's to help understand the basic structure of a signature and will help. I know there are some good PSD's here on NGU in the GFX resources section. Also youtube is good for both tutorials and download packs which contains many favorited fonts, renders, C4D's, Fractals, etc,etc,etc.

Keep up the enthusiasm and you will notice your progress in time... (unlike trying to get a 6 pac :p)
