don't like the colors, but the actual look is awesome. I prefer a more simple color scheme like below, but thats just me.

Image

and maybe make the border match the white line theme that you have going on throughout the rest of the sig. extremely good for first serious attempt though

the "S" looks wrong imo ;/ Looks like it's a different font. Otherwise the text is great.

was there a render of someone's head? Looks like it lol, but the oppacity is really low.

I prefer Sam's color sceme tbh Soviet ;/

The text is good, but the S just looks like you've changed it?

blue looks abit plain, multi colouring ftw

if you use such bright colours u should better work out the render so that is comes out of the background a bit maybe work with adjustments-layers - I know it sounds stupid

maybe u have a look at that

I think it looks awesome mate. My only thing is the green letters on the mech's leg. Clone it out and it would be better :)

I like the plain look of the sig Soviet made, but I felt it wasn't plain enough. It kinda reminded me of Pedsdudes sig. So here's what I think it should look like:

Image

Also added the white border Soviet suggested. I think it looks much better now. But that's just my opinion. :)

i agree with you ks on the colors. I have no problem for the major coloring, its just it was a bit too bright. I was just too lazy to actually do it properly. Tone it down a bit, then the white border. As for the text it goes perfectly with the sig, and i think the reason the s looks different is because it is capitalized.

I guess something as simple as this would have worked...

Image

(go to image>adjustments>hue/saturation then just turn down the saturation a bit and then the lightness a little to make it have more contrast.)

your text is okay in 4 of them in my opinion. Some are a bit too simple or empty, a few are good, and a few i don't really like
