Thanks rabeta! unfortunately you cant see joes face as he is hidden behind the darkness overally a good sig though, i like the text too

 

[rabeta]

hey Rabeta the last sig was great but it's a bit pointless now he's not playing against Australia so i was wondering could you make me another Broad sig saying "the messiah has arrived" when you are ready

Yes mate, may be a couple of days though, would you like it in the same style or completely different?

 

[Leicester Fox]

it can be in the same style as i liked the last one. Take your time and thanks mate

 

[rabeta]

I'll change it a little bit so that its a bit different, and I might do it now as I have a bit of time.

Here it is mate, havn't changed much because I was pleased with the last one, but I think the text has been improved and I smudged a bit of the render...

 

[Leicester Fox]

I love that mate! top quality stuff,it's hard to capture all of that brilliance as there's so much but you managed it!

Just out of curiousity, i want to ask what does ur current signature means?

 

[rabeta]

Well I had a render from my SOTW sig of the stumps and I decided to make a sig from it, different I know

 

[mattfb]

Its kool as, i love the bg, still trying to figure out how to do that :what... but you have PSP whilst i have Photoshop

 

[rabeta]

right, the main part of the bg is just a stock photo mate. I think it was of some grungy green slabs of wood, with cracks in e.g. the black part in the middle. Duplicate the image and add different effects to it such as brush strokes, and Gaussian blur. Then use a grunge brush on little opacity and brush the darker areas of the sig, around the outside of the render...to make the render stand out. Add a couple of c4ds and put them on overlay, change the opacity a bit. And I think that was pretty much it for the bg...pretty simple really, I imagine it looks harder than it actually was. Most of the bg is about duplicating layers and adding effects to them, and then setting them on different transparencies, such as overlay...

...hope you understood this lol

sick thanks mate
so basically the picture for the bg is a normal picture?
and a noob question here.. whats a c4d?

 

[rabeta]

Yea the picture for the bg is just an image and a c4d is an abstract render created using a program with the same name, (a 3d model). It is used for lighting and adding the finishing effect to in this case, a signature:
