    *Jumps on that bandwagon* Ahem. Let's get to it, shall we?

    Just a small head's up; I'm not very neat. I'm the sort who embraces the abstract, so yes, the stuff you see here will be flawed, undoubtedly askew & messy, but that's merely the way I like to do stuff. Oh, and if you're looking for c4d usage & lighting highlights, you're looking in the wrong place. I'm a grunge-splatter freak, haha.

    The sigs that I actually liked/willing to put here;

    Notice the severe lack-of-sigs? That's because I have always felt more comfortable working on a larger scale. Note: Possible Strechage;

    Until another time, I suppose~

    I'll consider it, but any time I do try and set up a shop, it dies. :(

    Haha...yes...you're correct. I'm 18 and I like Skylanders, ain't that lulzy? :sweat:

    Great work! I like the 2nd one a lot. A sig with so much white is kinda hard for me so I love seeing it done nicely ^^

    Thanks! And sweet! With that one, I wanted to try something 'bright,' so I'm happy to hear that it has appeal in a messy-loving way, haha.

    Gah, it's been literately months since I've posted anything new, so how about an update, eh?!

    Let's see....

    [​IMG]
    A nice simple number, done as a request somewhere else, and whom I don't even think logged in anymore to even view this. :(

    A mahoooosive wallpaper (okay, not really, but the canvas is larger than even my 760x375 norm, so stretchyyynesss)
    [​IMG]

    And my latest siggie, which I reallly loved how it turned out;
    [​IMG]

    I've recently started college, and one of the modules on my course involves web design, but will only cover the technical aspects of it so I'm thinking now is the best time to break into 'serious' gfxing and perhaps come up with a new style to counter my 'messy' one. First though, I'll need to source better brushes. I changed my brush packs recently but I'm still not happy! Gah!

    Woah..

    I'm a hug fan of the Wolverine and Hulk 'wallpapers' and I love your style of making graphics. It's like a splatter effect that I've never seen before. Keep up the awesome work and I noticed you rotate the banners in your signature quite often, very nice.

    Thank-you, it's the first time someone has said that to me, so I'm chuffed! Didn't think it was 'unique' at all, haha.

    Well actually, all those sigs are part of a 'pile;' there's a site I use, made by the admin of another forum I used to frequent that shows you a different picture in a stack or pile with each page reload (you generally have to force re-load it using Ctrl+Shift+R, in Firefox)

    Waaaaah!! So cool and badass! I love your splattery splatter style! That Wolverine one and the orange-haired-guy-who-I-don't-know is the best imo. Keep up the wonderful work!

    Thank-you for that! :)

    Here's some new stuff to throw in yer faces. Both have turned out pretty meh to me. I think I'm growing rusty.

    Thank you good sir for your praise. And i, too, apologised for my belatedness in giving thanks. :)

    Now then!

    Time for an update!

    How're these beauties?! (ordered from my least favourite to favoured piece)

    Went waaay overboard with the blurring. Still like the subtle (albeit failed attempt at a...) text effect in this one.

    Because who doesn't like Ratchet?

    ....Or Sly Cooper, for that matter. :D

    I tried shops before. If people are willing to put up with insane wait times combined with my general laziness, I could consider setting up a shop on here.

    Back working on a big canvas again. And I must say I do prefer it.
