So yeah I finally decided to do a black and white tag. It's different at best =P but you be the judge.

Tried to focus a lot on depth, not sure if it came across as well as I think it did in my head. No need to go easy I rather my first b/w sig get bashed so I know what to do right next time around.

EDIT:
Don't know why I'm posting this version all I did was flip it but it's early in the morning and I'm bored.

no prob with the depth. it could use some more loud effects. the cloud beside hmi seems dull. kiu

When I was drawing this piece out original on my sketch pad . I had a lot planed for it but I guess I made my canvas to small because it started to look messy and crowded.

Thanks thought I'll try to squeeze a few more things here and there.

EDIT:

LOl, at your current sig. I love that city stock it pwns. Looking good btw. :wink:

It was B/W to begin with. :(

I guess I can try colouring it myself. Might take a while though. =P

don't color it, b&w should stay b&w. It could still use more depth. Work on flow. v2, remove the glow lines by his shoulder, and underneath his chin there's a weird line, scratch it.

I'll make the changes after I finish my "sotw" sig, thanks for tips.
