the sig is semi decent thought needs a border, and the pic ruins it.
no flow at all, no blending at all, and looks like it was just placed there

might wanna change that render

Good work. Better than your previous ones. The background is decent. You used the most common brushes but it looks good and pleasant. The render needs to be fixed. Blend it in properly. And the text aint bad but can be improved.

Thanks for the "semi-decent" ^_^ and YES it needs a border which I forgot to put. In what way did the pic ruin it? In China, temperatures are cold, and also gusty at times. At least the idea is showing them cuddled together to somehow lessen the cold? I agree, it has no coherence to my idea _yet_. And yes it does look like it was placed there coz I did not add blends and blurs which a lot of people here are fond of doing to sigs.

Taking the artistic side of it? The background is an "artificial effect". The render is of real people. In a way, I prefer to have real people recognized than blending them in with the artificial effect. ^_^" just being philosophical. If you'll observe sigs, most of them do blurs, blends, mixes and stuff. Have you seem something "natural" and original that doesn't imitate or emulate another artist's style? :)

Yes, it is from "Condor Hero" the recent TV series. I used it for no particular relation to the tv show. Their position just somehow exudes what I had in my mind for the sig. Thanks for the comment :). I dont have any reason to replace it :)

Thanks! :) I just mixed and matched some brushes thats all. Yes, I will work on blending the render in with the background to somehow "unite" the elements, harmonize the real and the artificial. Yes I agree with font. I am still scouring my font collections for something to replace it. When you're devoting only a few minutes to do the sig, the time to scour for fonts in a large collection is a luxury.

To all:
Thanks for your comments :). They helped me a lot to improve upon my graphics skills. The techniques in doing sigs not only apply to sigs but also to other graphic works. Really appreciate your feedbacks. ^_^
