    It's pretty cool. The text is fine, I think the white line on the left is a little wider then it should be. Good job.

    I like the smudging. Text could use some work, but I'm fine with it. The focal should have been brought up a little more, but I think you wanted the top part of her head as part of the focal? Overall, it's a tight tag. Keep up the awesome work.

    Looks good, although the render/stock has abit pixelated edges.

    looks good, but the font could use some work. try making it smaller, that way it'll be easier to focus on the focal point.
    also try adding some layer adjustments to change the overall color- I'm not a big fan of the blue color lol

    btw the samus picture in you sig looks nice, if you don't mind can you give me a link to it?

    The lighting looks off to me. Looks like it should be coming from up top. The smudging could use some sharper parts to give it some more depth, but the splatters are nice and subtle and gives it a nice texture looking dealio. The main part I'm not sure about is the c4ds at the bottom. They seem kind of out of place. Maybe if they were also a theme in the background instead of only the foreground they would make more sense. Just a thought.

    For the text, might look better if part of it was that sweet orange accent color from the render. Either way, good beans broski.

    i like the smudging ..
    but remove the text, will look better without a text
    and uhmmm .. what else :P

    you could add some more colors, the ones you have chosen are kinda boring

    white and brown = no
    and remove the softbrush dot at the left corner and make a smudging there
    and what you could do as a lightning is

    new layer > apply image > filter > render > render lightings make it come from above her head, but don't let the sides be to black
    just a bit

    hope that helped you out bro :P

    This is a first for me, so I kinda new it
    wasn't excellent. ;)

    The lighting/smudging thing was hard for me for some reason. :blink:

    Not bad, try to make the smudging less repetitive. And as others said work on colors, lighting, and text. Not bad for a first attempt, i remember mine...yeah bad memories.

    The text is good, but the left part is a bit empty except for the smudging, and it doesn't look very good. Other than that, it's pretty good for you first smudge sig
