doing great for just starting! try to match your colors and give it some depth. text is redonkulous and will take forever to get decent with it.

here is my latest one, added some more brushes to my library, and little bit more fractals... I need to work on text, and lighting i think, but what I else can I work on to try and get to that next level....where people make bomb sigs?

Hey i just got out of the stage your at with your Sigs just do every tutorial you can until you get the hang of evry techniqe that they use. also just fool around with effects and diff. brushes. you can download fonts and brush from deviant art but dont worry about the fonts.just hang with it and dont let the critisism get to you, think of it as help. but great start for just starting.

yea that's what I'm doing, taking all the comments as advice and trying to learn from them, they have been helpful, especially Mufasa, really helping me identify area's I should work more on.... anyways here is one I made for a clan mate, with time and practice I know I will come better, and tips just help make be better, so i guess I can only get better :)

My comments on this one.....The left side looks brighter than the right, a mistake I didn't realize(part of my newness), did it in the dark(not good).....and I think I should have done a better job merging the render with the back wings(not really sure how I could have)...but will work on things like that! oh and I think I personally did a good job distinguishing the paint brush lines from the back wings, but I'm sure a veteran could have done a better job.

idk the correct placement of wings but they look a little high up wouldnt the top part of the wings be more on his shoulders if not then sorry lol like i said not sure of correct wing polacement & yes the left side is brighter than the right which in fact it would need to be the other way around considering where the lights coming from.

try adding some c4d's along with different effescts. if you use a blur tool make the closer part of the render blured slightly to give it a depth 3d feel and match colors. also try to adjust opacity it blends alot :)
