They look pretty nice, well done
The only criticism I can think of is that your text is too basic, although I know from my own experience that text is often the hardest part of a sig.

Re: [Showcase] Nomad's Sigs
The render doesn't quite fit in perfectly on the first sig, the colors are a bit off with the background. In addition, text color doesn't match and is too basic as Peds said. The background is really well done, though, and the filter or whatever you used on it makes it quite cool.
The animation is a bit too simple on the second one, I'd suggest some quick fades in and out with the muzzle flashes. Also, the background seems a bit too repetitive. The text fits in better, but again is a bit too simple. The render fits in really well with the background while still having enough contrast to stand out which is very good, that isn't easy to do.
The third one's only issue is the text. The rest looks awesome and black and white sigs are pretty rare, therefore it has an element of uniqueness to it.
The fourth one is good for what it is, but I can't help but feel like it is missing something. I'm not sure what, but something about it doesn't seem quite right.

Re: [Showcase] Nomad's Sigs
Adding to Sov:
Animation is a "muzzle flash", you should add a light effect on the sig and especially on the render in the sig. So, make the sig go brighter (or higher gamma) and even more so on the fron of the render.
The white sig is screaming out for some solid black text.
I don't think the fourth is missing anything, I actually think the text is ruining it. Make the text small and concise.
My only general advice is to try not an center any renders, using the "rule of thirds" of photography [seperate you image using rulers at 33% and 66%, on both vertical and horizontals, and then place you focal points on the intersections of the image. In general use, this will always be more pleasing to the eye]. Others positions are "part on, part off" like mine and Soviets sig, with renders on the sides.

Re: [Showcase] Nomad's Sigs
i listened to your guys comments and added new text to the black and white sig, tell me what you think
Re: [Showcase] Nomad's Sigs
The text looks better, but I still don't think it really works. I can't really give a reason, it just doesn't quite fit.
