My entry:

Check out, how far I improved :

Ryan, it might be your best sig so far imo... that's amazing

 

[Close]

Thanks Demonflair, and Syntax !

Syntax looks good, but you could make it really great !

The text " ironman " looks a bit too dark, and can't really see the "i".
Same with Marvel. Me, personally, prefer white text. And imo, I don't like the chrome effect. The border and render looks great.

 

[Syntax]

Even though it's kind of dark I prefer it to blend in more with the signature. Also I don't really feel like over doing the signature Thanks for the feedback however.

That looks so much better than my attempt Close. Nicely done. I am going to re-do my previous entry and use Beast as the render.

EDIT: This is my final entry. Please ignore the previous (Wolverine) entry:

Very good, much better than the Wolverine one. Try to sharpen the render more, to come out better in the tag.

The blur on the render was intentional. I motion blurred it from the top to give it the effect of a heavy landing (the reason for the flying debris).
Thanks for the feedback.

The motion blur is fine but I think demonflair is right...you need to sharpen the render a bit...if you only do a new layer and apply the image then sharpen and erase around most of the render...I think his face needs more sharpness.

Here's my entry. Not that good but I couldn't find inspiration in this theme:

 

[Close]

Render, and text placement looks really good, but the render looks desaturated.

I have another version of it:

I have another version of it:

I personally think that the first one is much better.

At Ricardo and Tarheel: Thank you both for the feedback. I will try some sharpening and then post an updated version soon.

EDIT: Here is the sharpened version:

This should be your entry, and it's nice. Very.

Pras: MUCH BETTER.

Hmm... looks somehow the same... try to sharpen it more. Do this: in the layer that you applied the motion blur filter, erase the render (if it was by applying image), then sharpen the render in a new layer, then add fade sharpen in Edit»Fade Sharpen, then set it to one that will fit better...

From looking at it I think if anything needs to stand out and be sharp it's his face. I would work on getting a nice amount of sharpening on there.
