<div align="center">4 versions. 2 with white border 2 with black border. cnc. the negative space is on purpose, thought it would work well with this tag. also tried to make the effects around his sword and it turned out pretty good ^_^</div>

too much of emptyneess for my taste...also scrap the text
v3 for me

 

thanks, might post up a non-text version later. anymore?

 

bump >.<

 

is it that bad?

 

It's not bad it's just either to wide or to much neg space. fill up the background abit. I like the depth but make the focal a bit better

 

ok cool, i'll see what i can do.

 

too bland of a focal TBH

 

The negative space isn't working, it never really does with white. I'm not feeling the clipped rectangles, either.

best of the 4 imo


besides the negative space i like it

 

ok, thanks for the comments guys

 

You've crammed everything into a 100x100px area, and just left white space on either side... it does nothing for you composition. To me this looks like a render+C4D+C4D+C4D placed randomly with little blending, a few displacement filters perhaps, and a clipping mask.

I don't really like this, sorry.

 

Its okay ^^

 

I dislike them with the borders :\ It really doesn't help or improve anything

V2 is hawt! keep up ^^

 

Not bad. A bit too much white, though.

I'm liking the top left version the most.
