    It's pretty good, but the bg just seems a bit too plain. Blending is nice though.

    i think the best way to get a nice and interesting bg that you could work well i to use a bg stock that fits the tag, smudge a little so it isnt too plain but dont over smudge it beyond recognition that way you are able to creat the depth fixed and it makes it interesting, you need to start with these and work your way up on bg's to creatin your own effectivly

    I don't think I've seen any of your other signatures (since I'm new here), but when you said, "I think I'm losing my mojo" I would have to disagree. I think this is a really well done signature. I like it a lot. Since I don't know a whole lot about signature making yet, I don't think I should really be the one to tell you on how you can make it better, but I can tell you all the things that I think look really good/well done. I love the grayscale color palette and the way you blended everything in. It makes everything flow really well. Text choice and placement seems to be a tricky thing to pull for some people, but I think you managed to pick a fitting font and position. I think the border looks okay, but do you think you could possibly show a version without it?

    Keep up the good work. Looking forward to seeing more from you.
