Anyway, made a new tag, haven't made one in a while, trying to get better on drawings and using a tablet (see my drawing thread in the artist's hangout).
Ignore what the text says, it should be revenant wings.

I like v2 the best, but only because of the earth in it. It breaks up some of the blue.
The big chunks of sky are nice, but there's a little too much of it in front of the man. He doesn't really stand out enough.
The text is nice, it fades in really well without it disappearing.

Actually, I like the first one the best. The earth in the second one sort of detracts from the focus (which I'm assuming is supposed to be the man) since it's bright, and doesn't really fit the flow. What did you use for the blue stuff?

Erona ty for the crit I wanted more of a blue washing over him kind of look, as he begins to day dream, that's why I used a lot of blue, but yeah I probably added too much, ah you like the text? Cheers I tried to make the text integrate more with my tag, my text usually looks really bad and rushed, but I like how this turned out.
QTR I agree the earth was a bit of a last minute addition, the stock can be found here in this package
http://resurgere.deviantart.com/art/Packag...smos-1-60499918 these guys have god knows how many stock packs and they are all inspiring and amazing, the one in particular I used is the blue one with the same planet in my tag, check em out!
Cheers.
BTW they have 8+ cosmos stock packages, I've downloaded 1,2 and 3 the others look great, haven't had a chance too download them.

Oh, if that's the effect you intended, then I like the composition, except the fabric-looking edges don't quite fit with that. Maybe if the edges swirled more . . . ?

Yeah, I like the text. It fits the image mood perfectly.
I agree with QTR, if he's daydreaming the edges need to be a tad softer or swirled.

I think the Final Fantasy text kinda ruins it a bit, it's just a bit choppy and the colours don't really help it be readable. it's more like a blemish than a viable addition.
Incidentally, it's Final Fantasy XII: Revenant Wings. xD

I know what you mean, the font is quite ''tall'' so any small versions of it you can't quite see any character definition, I did put XII in but yeah the font isnt quite readable, I'll try darkening the background a bit.

The first one is better, but the edges on the left side are still a little too hard.
The second one is veeeeery nice, but it's a tad empty on the right next to her (Or him I'm sorry if I'm wrong.) head and too full on her left.

Try using a simpler font, at the moment it distracts.

V1 is waaaay better in my opinion; the simplicity of the figure in V2 doesn't match the intricacy of the blue stuff (sorry, I don't know what to call it. =P) It looks like a window to something blurry that's just stuck behind it.

What kind of theme are you trying to go for here? I see the person, but then I see the "Final Fantasy" text. There are two conflicting themes here. You should either remove the Final Fantasy text and rteplace it with something more fitting, or put an actual FFXII character instead of this other dude.
I just noticed your Cloud sig, which is an improvement, but doesn't really make sense since it says Final Fantasy XII.
Regardless of this confliction of themes, the effects you've put into this sig aren't bad at all.

I would agree with you IF this was an LP but its just a tag, text for text's sake the font doesn't matter at all as long as it integrates well.
