Theme: Villains 

that theme has been used already, and is still in the list of can not be used. that is the only reason i didn't pick it for my theme otherwise i would of pick it. you always want to check the list of theme first to make sure you're are not picking something we've already done.

Good work to everyone who entered. Now lets begin.

 

Nagisa - the glowing effect around your render is too visible

malfahad - your text is a touch too small, don't even bother to add it if it is illegible

J-Lord - You might want to reduce the contrast on this just a touch

 

And for the runner ups

 

firedogx10 - I didn't like your render, plus the focus of your sig is fully on the left side around the text and empty space.

dn_angel000 - good sig, but that pink thing at the top left is super distracting from the rest of the sig

Kei Shiro - try to keep your borders more uniform. I know that you adjusted it since Thor is too much in the way, but it just leaves the sig looking off balance

Tsukumo Yuma - excellent sig, very stylized. One thing is that everything else in your sig is rounded, it might help to round off some of the sharp jags on your render.

 

Oh, and just as a heads up. dn_angel000's name is misspelled in the voting post. Just so you know.

dn_amgel000, thats funny lol

 

It's probably because the "M" is next to the "N" so it's a mistake anyone would make.

And thanx for the tip

[J-Lord]

Nice entries this week, here are my votes:

 

1. Nagisa - I feel like your signature captures the theme nicley and the colour scheme fits that of a hero and for me goes nicley with the render.

2. firedogx10 - I love the render and the colour scheme backs it up. That and teamed up with some nice txts makes for a awesome signature.

3. malfahad - Nice monotone colour, and well blended, seems a little fuzzy/blurry to me but still a nice signature.

 

To everyone else, great signatures keep up the good work.

[Renzo]

Dang, all are really nice. But, i felt only a few truly captured the essence of Heroes, and that's...

2. KakashiZero
