as y'all know, i havent been making a lot of sigs lately.
found a request in requests section that caught my attention.

hard part for me, he wanted some colors basically, and i had to put in two
characters, a warrior and a cleric looking person.

i tried my best, and am quite happy with the result.
just afraid i over-did it a bit with clipping mask / pen tool.
any tips/comments?

V1, small border

V2, thick border

right side
i dont think the blue matches the yellow and white very well and the background figure is very "rough". I also think their are too many cilpping masks on the left side of the sig. if you were to reduce the numbers it would flow a lot better, like on the right side.

i like the thick border.
only thing about clipping mask is that the right side seems a bit empty and weird.
i love the text work/placement.
8/10 nice work cin.

<3 the thicker border. i agree that the blue and yellow don't mtch, but i love them FOR that reason. don't change a thing there, imo. i also don't think there are too many clipping masks. though i do agree that the cleric-type figure is a but over-sharpened. hit him w/ a blur filter, or the blur tool.

cin, probably your best yet. 7.8/10

Looking great, cin. In a bit of a hurry to type this since I'm in Canada snowboarding / skiing right now, but here we go. :]

I'm loving it. Like Sui said, it's definitely your best Sig yet. I'm not too big of a fan of such contrasting colors, but this actually looks quite good. I'm still laughing at the MapleStory character, though. And also a bit upset that I could tell you what kind of weapon and shield that is (Fraute and Panlid, lulz).

I like the contrasting clipping masks - that definitely was a plus. Squares on the left, and circles on the right. I don't know if I'm looking for hidden messages that aren't there, but the entire thing seems to be one great contrast to me. Squares versus circles. Blue versus yellow (certainly contrasting colors!). Warriors versus Clerics.
Your glow lines also look fantastic. They look natural, and not forced at all. Also nicely blended in.

On another note, though, I'm not too big of a fan of the font placement. To be more specific, I don't like how the Furious juts out from the line that's drawn with the Ninja and the silkroadforums, if that makes any sense. But that's just me. :]

That's about all I can point out. Never been any good with sprite Sigs. And I'm still in that hurry to leave, hehe.

So lovely Sig, cin! 7.5/10 from me!

That sig reminds me of the painful memory that a MapleStory ANIME still lingures somewhere in the world.

7/10

Warrior + a paladin :> Not priest.
But what the heck, it's an awesome sig. You did quite well seen that you've had to use 2 focals, and tbh, it's way above the level of your previous sigs. Looks like you've progressed a lot!

What more can I say... I just love it. Oh, and V2 ftw :>

8/10. ^_^
