I couldn’t find the complete version of one of my Deathblow sigs (old name); however I did find the PSD portion of the rain effect. Took an old sig I made and tried something new. Truthfully this was an accident, while missing around with the different blend options I came across liner burn. Thus this was born. Thoughts ?
The animation is neat. Try reading up on some tutorials. They can help you with your coloring, depth, and effects.
http://www.gamerenders.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=332786 ^^ Those are pretty good beginner tutorials. What I'd suggest is to go through them and see what techniques they use that catch your eye. Try them out in a sig. Even if it doesn't come out great, you'll get the hang of it.
Any of the free tutorials. They really are nice and good for beginners. I have some posted in the free tutorial section.
