Ryuji's GFX [4.10 Band banner]

New stuff on bottom

Actually, it's pretty good. All we gotta do is add a picture and border and walla, great sig!

Pretty colors >w<

But yesh. It is indeed a fact a very good signature. Very good if you just started :] all it really needs is a border and a picture in it. [What Toad said]
'

nice, like was said needs a piccie

meh yeah, i'll starty making more things with pictures soon

Thats really good.Its 100times better than my first work or even second for the matter.

~first siggy in PS~
eh not that bad of a sig for a first timer on PS. heck, on my first time, i never even knew bout brushes.

just need a border and a stock i guess.

~banner~
just crop the picture so that there wont be as much black space. other than that I have nothing to say.


Underoath do you mind sending me the grass brush u used for ur first one? I've looked everywhere and i still cant seem to find it. Please?

I like the leaves...

*is a big fan of leaves*

lol sorry! ok...how should i start?

stock is basically a picture in a sig/banner/avatar/etc. of a person/car/etc. cropping is when you cut some part of a picture and making it smaller using the crop tool (in your toolbar to the left).

oh ok that makes more sense...

I've been experimenting with some stuff lately, found out about teh clouds of smexiness , C-n-C please

A border would be good and better text. Good though.

Here's the new stuff that I've been working on....


Siegfried from the Soul Calibur series:





and my new set from a game called Over Zenith [OZ]:

nice texture, good clean image. Nice cropping and great colour. 'Feel' looks a little too close to the edge.
The leading (space between lines of text) is a little too much for the central text.

The typography could be a bit stronger, but otherwise it's a really nice banner.

More new stuff

You're improving lots. I'm sure you know how to blend, right?

Sort of, I've got the idea, but haven't tried it

More new stuff

Try varying the shades in the background, it adds some real depth. As is, it seems a bit flat, maybe try usign a blue => black toned background to make it a little more lively, by using colour balance layers beneath the stock layer, and try not to brush over the stock too much, otherwise it might become over blended.
But you're getting better bro, keep it up

Thanks Sennin

More new stuff:

I have a good feeling about this one

thats good

I like the new one...

Nice.

Any suggestions of doing things better? anything wrong with it?

Well, you can try adding more contrast/depth to it. I suggest you use adjustment layers. They can do wonders. An 1 pixel outline around the text can also make it stand out.

Two new things:


Evangelion:



and an experiment:

Hey you learned overlay and the lines across the sig thing! I don't even know how to do that one =\

Haha, all I do is experiment most of the time. The first one I made 'cause I was bored. While the 2nd I did because I felt like trying something. I also followed some of Sakuya`'s tips that he gave me.

Nice work. I like the second one more. The color appeals to me. /no1

i like the back round due! nice work

The brushing that goes on top of the render seems a bit distracting. But it's nice otherwise.

Try adding a new layer. Just take a dark brush and brush over it randomly leaving some dark and light spots. Then set the blending mode to overlay. That will give you some contrast and depth in your work, to help keep it from looking so plain like one simple pattern

Adrian very nice work keep it up

Here's a RahXephon set I made for a member here:

That's actually pretty gppd. I like it

I think it's good too. But the render could be above the brushing layers.

Evangelion:



Love that one.

Hehe thank you, I think I've been improving lately. Personally, I like the Rahxephon one a lot

Yes. I like how you brushed there. It was effective. =]

Thanks for the compliments , I don't think this one is very good, but I just made it:

You are getting better that is for sure and it has very nice coloring in the backround

Just a tip: You could try brushing somewhat less over the charecters in the sigs.I think it might look better.

You can always have a duplicate of the stock in top of all the layers and put it in overlay.

They look nice. ^^

The flames are a sweet effect

@Sakuya`: That's true, I should probably try that sometime.

The problem with my new one is that you can hardly see the stock, the brushing goes over it a little too much.

I like the picyure of naruto you used in it

Your new one is great. It looks plain, but it has depth to it. It also has a very simplicity to it which is appealing.

Haha well thanks, I didn't like it that much.

the newest one is cool

Here's a simple Death Note one. I focused on the typo, that's why the backround is plain.



I should porbably do a border, but I can't seem to think of anything creative. Plus the fact that a black border won't really show up since the bg is black.

EDIT: I went with a red border just to F around. If anybody has any comments, feel free to say them.

That is deep text.

Its pretty neat and notable keeping in mind that its black & white.But,I think, it`d be better if it had a grey-scale kinda effect rather than being fully monochromatic. edit-gah wrong smiley.

Well for the past hour I've been working on GFX.

New one:

I like this one a lot.

Love the brushing you did on it. ^^ The stock is nicely blended yet it stands out. Did you do pixel-stretch? oO

Thank you, Ithy

No, I'ver never tried pixel-stretching. My brushes are automatically like that.

xD My mistake. I dun know shiz about PS so I go "AH! *insert assumption* =D" And them I'm wrong. xD;;

Actually, technically I don't really know what pixel-stretching is either. I know Sakuya` uses it though. Some of the patterns on his sigs are kind of like mine. So don't worry about it, it just mean's we're in the same boat basically xD

Thats awesome dude I think its the best after the rahx one.Love it for the effects,it gives the message as simplly as that.no abstarct brushes no grundge no whatsoever.
Have to admit i envy that style of yours.

Hehe thank you, Darkness. You're improving too, just keep on working, man

Nice sets I couldn't make good one's like that so you have good talent in sig making =/

I like!

Another new one:

Anubis from the Zone of the Enders videogame series

Ooo. Nice. I like the blending. You've got a theme going on. Might I suggest you try to lower the opacity of the text to around 70~85% and just see how that works. I'm not sure, but I think it'll stop drawing attention away from the stock.

the blending wit the gray is very well done indeed

Indeed it is a very good sig and a video game sig I didn't see that coming

Well Zone of the Enders is also an anime, but I've never seen it. My last sig, the red one with the archer, that was from a game called Princeton Tales.

But most of your sigs are from video games even if they are animes too

New one:

I experimented with some new things.

=O I've seen that stock~ <3

I really like the colours you used. The stock is nicely blended into the bg, too.

You may wanna DL a couple of fancy fonts to mess around with a little..>.O Then again, that's just my opinion. I like the simple text, too.

Yeah, well you stole my RP name so I stole that character's pic

I liked your former ones. This one is oversaturated. Maybe you could have a fresh stock layer over all of this and try out the curve layer. (layer > new adjustment layer > curves). But that's only my perspective. I think the text is fine, though the white border is sharp, you could maybe lower the opacity.

Your newest one is my second fave.

You've gotten much better, good job.

well look who it is....

Several new ones:

Earliest to latest:

Roxas from Kingdom Hearts 2:



Hero from Suikoden 4:



and Dark from DN Angel:



C-n-C please. Any suggestions would be helpful.

Like the 1st one and the 3rd one.Only negative thing i noticed is that you went a bit high on saturation.Otherthan that I think they`re one of your best works till date.

I like the third one. Mostly because of the leaves. Nothing is really bad about it except for...theres no border and the color of the text is annoying. In the second one, the text is a little hard to read and the whiteish blotches are not going with the overall pic. Finally, the first one...The pic you used looks a bit faded. I dunno if you wanted it that way, but his face is hard to see...with all the detail and all. You are improving every time you do a new sig. I can just tell.

I like the third one better. Not only the leaves, but you can see the picture clearly. The background is a bit too dark, but that's just me. On the second one, you should put a border on the text so you could see the text clearly. Ummm, I think that's all I have. ^^;

Great improvement, Feel!

Oh, thank you. The third one does have a border, but it's white, so it doesn't show up here.

The Dark on e is pretty sweet.

Work on where you put the leaves and see that it doesn't draw attention away from the stock. I don't like the first two because of the colors over-run and very scratch-y too. Maybe you could try to not have any brushing over the stock but rather around it. They're good otherwise.

Another new one:

From the new Children of Mana game that's supposed to be for the DS.

Its a bit cleaner than your creations.So i`d say its good.The b.g is very simple and good looking.The text even though it is slightly pixelated matches the grainy stock well.Overall I say not bad.

Is that secret of Mana?

No, it's from the new installment of the Mana series. It's called Children of Mana and it will be for the DS.

Seems you and your DS is attached to you xD but over all nice sig

The typography grabs too much attention. Look at the sig you're using and look at the one you made. The stock itself could use more blending. Same with the bg, it isn't interesting enough to compete with the text.

New One:

Jet from Wild ARMS 3:



My very first animation, I'm quite satisfied.

There seems to be a new trend for aniamted text. Let me point out that animation doesn't always make sigs look better.

I rather like this one, how you use just dulled out the bg gradually and focused on the stock. I see the sense of movement and your brushing is definitely intentional. Truth be told, it looks like a good photomanip. /no1

Why thank you, Sakuya`. I definitely like this one too. This was my first time doing animation, I probably won't do much work with it. It's too complicated for me

Here's a suggestion: Rather then having the whole phrase animated, just have maybe one word or two moving. Or have the lines fade in and fade out one by one, you know, to show some sort of stability and flow at the same time.

Yeah, I'll definitely try that. I might even do it with this sig still.

Quoted Ryuji (on Jan 17 2006, 10:14 AM) —

Yeah, I'll definitely try that. I might even do it with this sig still.

You should. It'd make it look much better, since the animation is done well.

First chibi set ever, inspired by Sakuya`.

Nice, but the text blends in too much. I can read it, but others might not be able to. Maybe you should try using some pixel fonts?

Pixel fonts?

Like the little fonts in my sig. Those are made to be legible in a small size.

I can read the text just fine. The sig's awesome, Ryuji.

So can I.
But maybe have the outerglow in screen mode rather then multiply...

Quoted Sakuya` (on Jan 18 2006, 11:38 AM) —

Like the little fonts in my sig. Those are made to be legible in a small size.

I assume I can jsut download these off of dafont.com?

Yes or any other font sites. If you're having trouble, google 'pixel fonts'.

Okay, I got some pixel fonts. Here's an idea that I took from some specific few on ROCuldesac.




Suggestions would be nice. I'll probably be fixing the text.

Nice and simple.

But try moving the sprites a bit to the left.

I did the moving sprites over:

Looks more balanced. /no1

A loading screen I made. It's a simple little thing, but whatever, I wasn't trying.

Oh em gee. I just realized that. But bah, I'm too lazy to fix it right now

New one, it's from an anime called Kino's Journey:



I should be fixing the stock after school, this is just what I did this morning.

the cutting needs work and i think it would be better if the stock was lowered some
=D

... I've been looking for the name of that anime for so long.

Anyway, cutting neeeds work. So does blending. The stock and bg don't go together. And the bg doesn't have enough deapth, looks like random brushing. Come now, you can do better.

Quiet you, I'll put more effort into it over the weekend. Plus, it's like my first real grunge work. It's also called Kino No Tabi, I think.

Doesn't look grungey. The stock is too perfect, in terms of shape/posture. Nothing scratchy about it. Edgework is important if you want to do grunge.

Nice works.Been a whie since i checked this.XD
The 'ro loading screen' is quite good.There`s a lot of activity in the right part which would definitely keep the user glued,cause it`ll make him/her check the characters over and give something to do while waiting for the screen to load.
On second note,its very simple too.
The sprites one is simple and elegant too.Good selection of colors for it.
About the latest one,the stock needs some work and also the color of the stock doesn`t quite match the b.g,try tinkering with the hue.Otherthan that,its okay.

Let me rephrase that then. It's the first time I've done a grunge-like background.

Thank yous, Iwikiwi.

Very nice I'm glad to see that your not rusty like when you didn't make a sig for accouple weeks looks like your back good to hear.

Another Kino's Journey one:



C-n-C please.

Good grunge. A bit more texture nd it'll be awesome. Try to make it sharper too, not too sharp. And somewhat saturated, but still even throughout. And brushing off the face. Around is fine, but you shouldn't put brushing on the face. Good work.

I like this new one, especially what you did with your name... I just saw it now. I agree with Sakuya, You can use sharpen on the grunges, it makes them look more grungy. and I suggest you use eraser with the shape of the grunge that you used to erase some of the brushing on the face.

Why thankies
This was basically like my first time using grunge at all, so I'll practice on those things you guys mentioned.

New one, from the game Drag-On Dragoon 2. It's Drakengard 2 in English:

Another new one, it's from an MMORPG called Rising Force Online, which should be out in America in like 2 weeks:

-Random brushing.
-Stock much too blended, even with the color-only part.
-Could use better composition, especially for the typography.

You can do better yo.

Yeah, I know I can, I was just bored. I'll have some more done this weekend though.

Another new one, it's Dante from the DMC series:

Lacks a proper focal point. Try using mroe emphasis yo.

I'm think I'm gonna start doing grunge now, so basically, no more abstract for me. Here's a new grunge one, I actually like this one, I just started experimenting with tons of different things.

OOOooooh... I love that one, sexy.... I personally think this is your best sig. Usually I'm bothered by the pixelation, and sharpness on the edges of the stock, but I understand why you left it that way. I love it.

That one's awesome, Ryuji. Love the faded/brightened lines. <3

Quoted Ryuji (on Feb 9 2006, 10:49 AM) —

That right there is a awesome sig as Ithy said before.

The broken edge could use some work.
I mean, it could be more grunge-fied, if you really want to make grunge.
Try to select the stock only and then expanding/compacting the border under 'select'. You can create different effects like that if you play with that and the marquee tools.

Zomg, thanks guys. I'll try that advice too, Sakuya`. What would you rate it though?

6.9/10 </subliminal messages>

i agrees with all them except i would move the stock down a little so that the text isn't on the stock because i think you can't move the text cause the text is on a brush or something right?

that's digimon? o-o it's changed alot since the last time i saw it (3-4 years ago) o-o;

Digimon got pointless and stupid after season 3. Tch.

i stopped watching it around when the 3rd season started o-o; so I have no idea what came after that...

I stopped watching it after the second season. It just got ridiculous. *shrug* but I like the siggy. The grungy-ness is really nice

Ay, I don't even know what season they're on now. The first couple of seasons of Digimon were awesome, then they ruined it. But I liked the picture, so I saved it. FA, the text is actually on a line that I created.

And yet another new sig, it's Gilgamesh from the Tower of Druaga an old RPG game, that was recently remade.

Oh yeah it is *thinks naughty thoughts*

Work with the edge of the stock. Use grunge brushes/eraser tool or else this style will get old fast.

This grunge technique works well with you, but that doesn't mean you can start becoming formulaic. They're very nice... but even nice things can start losing their value if they become repetitive. But great job on all of the last ones... you've improved quite a bit in such a short period of time.

Edit: And OMG you got 80 on my quiz... you stalker =O, if nobody beat your score, I'll send you 50 winner cookies...

Yeah, I'm gonna start experimenting with the borders of the stocks.

I don't stalk you, Usaki

So this should be the last one, then I'll start with more of those experiments

It's nice, just one thing though... it's too dark that you can't almost see the brushing, so it looks like he's floating in a black bg.

Damn Sennin and his knowingness! I wanted those cookies

I like the 2nd and 3rd the best. And th quotes stand out a little too much for my tastes

The quotes were made there to stand out. In a way they don't destract from the actual stock and bg, it still catches your attention.

Well hey, it's not my tags, or my style. But that's just my opinion. Take it how you wish

New stuff I've made, since I was BANNED

ragnarok,need a new game for me to play..lol.i like the 2nd and 3rd also.probably would of looked gud if u overlayed ur name though.and toned the silkscreen font to bout 68%.btw,i thought ppl were entitled to their opinions, like u said, the world is harsh,think u said..*looks back*

Yeah, I did say that, but I was telling him my opinion back.

Newest grungy creation:



Character is from the new Shin Megami Tensei game entitled, Persona 3.

Well, I must say, thanks for NOTHING~!

Holy crap, Ryuji! You improve so fast. 0__0!

Nya~ Hiya, Kohaku-chan. Are you going to be starting GFX here again? Or at least post any new things?

Hiii~! ^____^
I don't know if I should start graphics again. I didn't do a lot of psing after I left. I might be able to post some new stuff though.

Hmm, that's good. I've missed your awesome stuff. Glad to have you back .

^Awww... Thanks.

What's this? KohakuxRyuji?

Maybe...

Yet another Persona 3 sig, same character.

And yet another new one, same game, same character. Except, it's my first bookmark-like GFX.



and yes, I know I screwed up on the hair.

cool stuff ryuji keep it up

I like the bookmark, though the only thing I'd say is to try avoid it being too monotone; it works once or twice maybe, though generally its something you should move away from...

Aside from that, and the cutting, nice job bro

Thanks for the advice yo. I'll do better next time.

New works, one of the many Gundams:

A sig I made for a friend on another forum:

I was bored.

EDIT:Oh yeah, I was re-arranging my photobucket, so thats why all the tags are messed up.

This is my attempt at making something like a wallpaper, I don't really like it. And yes, I know there's a big black spot in the top left corner.

http://www.fileupyours.com/files/29405/ago...ainwallie-1.jpg

Why the name change bro?

As for the wallpaper, I don't like the way the scanlines come over the stock; it makes the edges seem pixellated in places.
The text seems odd to me, kind of out-of-place in te wallpaper, and the background brushing doesn't seem very structured, even for a grunge style.
Overall, its alright, but keep trying mate.

What change yo?

I had a bad feeling about the wallpaper, it didn't look good to me.

EDIT: Congrats on higher position yo. Now, when SK's not looking, knock him out and we're good, we'll have KAF to ourself.

My newest creation:



I like this one.

[Note: DS, I'll kill you if you merge my post with the one above^]

Hehehe...wouldn't dream of it.

I like most of it, though the font for "The God Of War" doesn't fit IMO, maybe if it was smaller, or a non-pixel font.
The colours....I'd play more to the yellow or the purple of the stock; the blue/turquioseish colours are good but too much of it draws attention to the negative space to the left.

'K, how's this?



I like this version a little better I think.

Text is muuuuuuuuuuuch better

Thats the way, uh huh, uh huh, I like it.

Your new set is pretty nice. Just an advice: If you're going to cut a merged section of your sig to make an avatar, make sure to sharpen it a little, sometimes they do not match well like the one you have right now.

nice new set ryuji

meh, first sprite sig try...

Meh, Onimusha 4:



I might put this as my entry for the SOTW.

I'm not a sprite sig fan. Maybe it's because I see them used too often in the same way, but I'm fickle.

Your last sig is pretty interesting. I don't think you should entirely brush the BG or something, fill it in with text (rather than that little thing I could hardly see) or just maybe some pretty decorations haha. I'm not really sure what you could fill it up with, but the brushing seems kind of repetitive and empty. But I love your color scheme, it works really well for the sig. (:

and my new Green Biker Dude siggie.

No point in even updating more, but meh, whatever.

Your getting better Adrian keep up the good work.

haha look who posted of all people ryuji anyway i like the green biker dude one (im so going to regret saying that )

Meh, been working with some other GFX'ers and we started a graphics group at AP (Anime Paper). So there for, havent really been here much.

A sig for Dark Warrior.

Too much red.
Too much scanlines = Overused.
The blending is awkward/abrupt.

Work on the stock itself... I mean, render it first, then make a sig.

I made a mistake. I meant "Dark Fighter". My bad on that one.



Refixed version.

Although, if you want, I'll make you a sig, Dark Warrior? Even though you're also a sig maker, I don't have a problem with it.

Never type at night ever again Adrian.

Haha, that was my bad, your guys' names are so much alike.

After Dark they aren't it was just you last night. How late did you stay up?

Warrior and Fighter? They're basically the exact same meaning. I was up till like...late.

Same meaning but nt spelling. Staying up late you need sleep because you wake up so early.

Bored and f'ing around.

That quote is going out to your girlfriend this friday right? xD

How abstract and nice.

Meh.

Just made this:

OMG BLINDAGE OF THE EYES! *is amusing himself*

For some reason, it looks like he's bathing.. 8D Or maybe my imagination is more vivid than I thought it was.

I think it looks rather nice, though, my wittle hispanic love monkey. B;

RACIST! D:<

Anyway, the only thing that bothers me is the white...

I think it has too much negative space.

The rich,bright whites and the dark blacks aren`t going well with each other.
They`re burning my eyes. o.o
I think It`d be better to make the whites a little faded or the darks more mosaic or light.

Hmm... I'll try some more stuff out this weekend and see what I can come up with.

someones getting lazy. here let this give u some so ideas

*cough*pervert*cough*

hey look who talking

Psssht. I'm not perverted at all.

I was bored. Tried animated sprite.

It not blend. o_O

Yes, try blending it so it will like it is in the signature. o-o;

NEVAR!

I was bored:

Blends well, but now work on your brushing.

I DEMAND YOU TAKE ME AS YOUR APPRENTICE!

No ... I lack motivation to do anything related to graphics.

You should work on your brushing so not everything looks like blotches of grungey stuff.

Pam, your spoiler scars me.

:D

Isn't it preeeecious? -twitches-

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

Meh. Like my very first wallpaper.

http://img239.imageshack.us/img239/4089/gr...a3wallie6os.jpg

I need suggestions on what to put in like the bottom half, or just suggestions overall.

Blend your colors.
Blend your stocks.
Put work into it.
Have some movement.

I figured something like that would come from you. But meh, I've only been on it for like a couple hours, so it cant be helped.

It's good for your first one just put something on the bottom half.

Newest set:

Looks better than the wallpaper.
use brushes?

Maybe try and make the stock more distinct? o_O
And what's so techno about the sig?

You have no imagination. It's obvious, really. The robot is dancing. xB

I agree with the uncreative booger, though. It looks much better than your wallpaper. I would like it if it wasn't so depressing to look at, hon. e.e; The really dark sides make me mad. Other than that, it's pretty, and aluminium foil-like.

Star brushes, very little lighting brushes. As for the techno thing, I don't really know, I was listening to "Techno Logic" and it just like fit, so I added the text.
