its not the font

its the placement and the way you do it

also why do people always put their names on their sigs? i find it redundant


prob so no one rips the image

if you made or payed for a sig would you want some one taking it

This isn't as much of a problem as you might think

I think the point of this at first is that you are trying to create a piece of art, not necessarily a tag. Text is disruptive unless it compliments the piece, and that's very hard to achieve without a pretty decent amount of knowledge and practice. I'd keep doing it, but don't worry about your name or anything. I'd post two versions, in my opinion your text is slowly getting better but like I said i've learned that it completely isn't the point

check out some of the sig of the week entries for examples

I don't like text if it won't work in a sig if someone takes it you simply report them and it works itself out.

That's not a good basis to put text on your own work especially if its hindering your work.

I do warn my patron requesters about text if it won't work well

the fx look really random. gives the sig no flow.
try to have an idea of were you want to go with your sig when u start
which can be hard to do and execute the way u want but it will give u an idea of were to place fx.
try working with more textures rather then just nebulas and c4ds.
something that you can put on something like soft light to help blend in renders.
and keep some sort of composition.
keep working on it man. it takes time and a lot of practice.
once u start figuring out what u think looks good and how to execute it you can develop ur own style

i like v2 best
the render, lighting and effects are incredibly high quality
very good eye for finding the balance between sharpness and blurriness
