In general I'm not too fond of taurens, they're so big it's hard to get them to not take up most of the signature space. I do think this one turned out ok though since I was able to zoom out on the character some to get the feral form images in that were requested.

For other requesters, I personally think my best are blood elves, night elves, humans (with helms only) and worgens. I do really well with priests and paladins, it also seems. Maybe they're just more photogenic. :P

Hello everyone, I was just wondering how you guys get a rendered version of the character in the model viewer. Do you render it yourself or is there a option I'm missing?

Visible text: Holö, Herald of the Titans
Armory link/Facial screenshot: http://us.battle.net/wow/en/characte...l%C3%B6/simple
Gear set: Skyshatter (T6 Armor Set)
Helm visible: Yes
Your pose: Casting offensive spell preferably
General colour scheme: Generally lots of blues or blue-tinted white.
Any extras: Lightning if possible, keeping with the overall feel of the Shaman class.

Thanks mates, cheers!

I know you said without helm but, as I think many of the other artists will agree, humans are really REALLY unphotogenic and difficult to get posed decently without helms on. So I put his helm on. I will still be working on the other pieces you asked for but I wanted to get this posted up in the meantime just in case I needed to make any major changes to it.

I guess this is my introduction to this thread. I still have to make my WoW Sig, because all my tags that I made (dA link below) are above .x100px. So annoying, tsk tsk, I got 4 infraction points!

Anyway, feel free to message me with requests, this was my first sig for a WoW forum/with a WoW character. Took me awhile considering I had no idea how to get renders out of WMV.

Anywho, here is my da;

Awesome! Thanks so much! I definitely like the second one more, the text/colors look a lot better. Good job! I'll be setting it to my sig when I get home.

Right so let's take a look at it. If you don't want this in the thread just PM me and I'll send it in PM and delete the post.

To start with, it's a very nice looking background. Got some great interesting textures in there and it's in the darker hues/values so it works well as a background (and not the white flimsy colours I have used in some earlier backgrounds - shame on me ).

Now my main concern is - even though the entire scene is on fire, there is a staggering (no pun inteded) lack of highligts from this fire on the characters. Light from behind is never easy to work with, but it would still create some highligts on what you see in the foreground. Also I don't know if it's you or WMV that applied shadows on the cat, but the cat is on fire. The cat itself would be a lightsource and hardly a place to introduce shadowing. If you wanted to shadow on it, you would have to do it on the armor or face.

Did a very confusing marking chaos on your image:



First of: the light blue around the borders of the character and creatures, would be the highligt from the background. Where it's more intense, the highlight would be intense, since metal reflects light harder than skin and leather. Feathers can also be fairly reflective, but definitively not as intense as metal. If you want to apply these highlights, control click the layer to load the selection (can't remember if you work with Photoshop or GIMP, but in Photoshop you can do this), and then you can paint with a soft brush around the edges. This will ensure you don't paint highligts on the background, and only on the renders.

The red pretty much just marks where the shadows on the cat seem to be wrong.

Dark blue shows that the cat itself is a lightsource and would shed light on the character/Staghelm as it would also affect its surroundings.

I hope this helps.

Thanks for this well written review of my background

All appriciated

Still taking requests ::]


FYI's:
-I have t13 but if you request a male Nelf in t13/s11 without a helm, I more than likely will not accept. Their eyes are perma-closed on that version of WMV.
-Yes, I do dual signatures
-Artistic freedom increases the likelihood I will accept your request
-Patience is a must! I accept 99% of the requests I receive, it just may take me a few days to complete it due to my crazy work schedule.
-I am accepting wallpaper requests on a case by case basis. They are not my strong suit so don't PM me and expect a Soko/Geek quality work of art.

Here is some of my work to get an idea of my style:

@Rivellana

Thank you so much! it's amazing!
And perhaps you were right about the helm, it does look better that way thank you so much.

Before anyone picks this up, I wanted to note that this was PM'd to me last night. I haven't had the time to finish it...although I'll get to it today since the requester has now posted the request on the board three times this week AND PMd it. :P (And please let me know if he's double PM'd)

In queue: Fleaz, Lightembrace, Addsy
Completed signature for Lightembrace last night but still need to work on wallpaper/banner

Beautiful work but they may cause infractions themselves! S;

Just so you are aware the max file size for sigs are 50 KB. Those two are currently in the low 80 KB range which is more than likely due to being PNG images.

If you use Photoshop I recommend using the 'Save for Web' option as you can save them as JPEGs at half the file size without losing too much quality in the image.

Any tips or advice appreciated!

You're welcome, I'm glad you like it.

I've definitely never had anyone offer to pay me in song! Although it does say your location is in England...do you have that lovely British accent? I'm a sucker for them. :P
