V1: V2: ^took out the last selective color layer which made it a bit monotone. ^- Assassin's Creed pwns. Ratings, C&C, etc, are all appreciated and welcome!
I like the first version the most, but in all honesty, the glossy effect doesn't look that good at all. Try removing that and then sharpen the signature instead, since that generally looks better than the glossy blurryness.
Even after you remove the last colour layer, I still do think the sig is quite monotone... My tips would be to even now keep the render a bit more in its original colours, maybe move it down a little. also the 2 little dots about 15 pixels above his daggerlike thingy are irritatingly asking for way to much attention, being one of the vocal points of the sig and making it difficult to really appreciate the more left part of the signature. I do like the text
