I used normal Adobe Photoshop brushes.

Credits: I got the render from anime render but there was no tag on the render for who cut it so I guess I will sredit anime render!

Some c4d's were used from a free c4d render pack!

The rest was done by me in photoshop!

No need to credit. C&C requested, please :D
GL Urasai!! :)


Your best signature yet. Great glowing lines (hope you used pen tool \o/), lighting. It may need more negative space, try some Curve Adjustments and improve text styles :D. I consider this as MvP Signature for Round 1, you get a rep boost \o/

Sorry to say, but I've gotta drop out :( I honestly can't make the tag with work going on. Hopefully I can join in on the next contest.

o.o wow great mines do think alike maxi o.O andways GL

[maximoose666]

oh noes, same render? Lol. Gl :)

http://i63.photobucket.com/albums/h142/maximoose666/Saber-Contest-TagV2.png

Render in my case = Tsukiyomi (AR)
C4D = Antix&Capwn (Liquified beyond recognition, I hope)

EDIT: I would like C&C, please :)


I like your swirl effect, probably be more awesome if it came from the front instead of the left side. This sig needs a BG for more awesomeness. Where the text?! lol. Render's face is a bit choppy and may need some blurring there.

[Nomadic Dragon]

My Entry..cutting it a little close..
http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b84/Nomadic_Dragon/MaiHime2.png
No need to credit..all default brushs.

[Kabane]

lol last minute entry
(yes i would like CnC)

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v385/prophecy424/Byakuya1.png

render credits go to respumod @ animerender


lol, great god prof. You barely won! I think those lines do NOT fit well with the current bg xD. its probably too busy and be better with blending. Sadly, the text is the best out of this sig :D.

[KuroShinobi]

i would have to withdraw as well.. i have an exam coming and loads of stuff to take care off.. hoping to join the other competition..
