Was just browsing through NGU trying to find a fix for BO2 to get online but no luck lol.. While browsing i thaught i might as well contribute a bit to keep the site rolling..
Everything happens for a reason right? Being into those GFX websites and stuff really has come in handy for me. Instead of using GFX for cool looking sigs with dubbed up video game characters i can actually put the skills i have learnt into action and to help me.. I make music and this is the image it has helped me to create.
All my GFX is all self taught with help from a few tutorials (back in like 2010) using Photoshop. I've forgotten lots of stuff but this is basically what i know to this day with what i do in life and if you could help me figure pro's/con's, tips and or tricks that would be nice.[/COLOR]

To e completely honest with you, this is not something you would make in two years.. I'm sorry to say but you haven't learned anything and should really start over. Don't have to use your skills on sigs but make them to practice your skills. I see no blending, Low quality, and just paint work here :/
Tips: For sure work on blending, look up a few tuts around here or DA and learn the basics. Never use lens flares like that either lol 2/10 :$
The following 2 users say thank you to +cK Trix for this useful post:

So maybe these are beginners on next gen updates levels but compared to people who dont know shit this is very complex and there is more then just paint stuff in here. If you think my stuff is horrible and i should go look up some tuts do you have any recommended tuts for me to look at which you would suggest?

Sorry to start out so hard on you, but yeah I think I have a few tutorials that could hopefully appeal to you. Since you don't like C4Ds then maybe something with some smudging. You can even doodle something and take that to photoshop if you'd like.

One thing would have been to move the text to the right/lower side of him and done something to that black background. I'm telling you, should keep practicing new ideas until you get the hang of them and should do them more often.
