Revenge Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 While I was away I decided to work on an idea for a signature I had. It actually came out better than I expected (but not as cool as what I originally imagined). The only thing I'm not personally happy with is that I couldn't think of an avatar to match. Please give suggestions on any improvements if you can. Maybe something about the spider (which I drew myself) or the size of everything. Just tell me if it could use a bit more work. :)
FutureTXTurkey Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 Well not to state the obvious...but would just cropping the signature image to just the spider be pretty cool? I always love it when an avatar looks like it was just plucked out of the signature. If you want something that's a little change from the signature though you could play with like writing Revenge in a spider web? As far as the sig itself is concerned. I love it! It's dark and awesome. The font on the name is a little hard to read, but the style matches perfectly so I think you should leave it exactly how it is. It's not like we don't know your name... I might add just a few more spider webs though. I think you can never have too many spider webs!
Unstream Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 Yeah I like the sig too. It's very cool. And like FutureTXGovernor said, an image of the spider would be good for an avatar. Just one thing. It's a bit hard to distinguish the head from the middle section of the spider. Maybe add a tiny bit of shading there, and it'll be perfect :D
Revenge Posted February 20, 2009 Author Posted February 20, 2009 I studied a bunch of spiders for the drawing. If you look at real spiders, there's only a little distinction. In fact, in most books about spiders I've read, they aren't even considered to have three distinct parts, just two. But I do know I could've put more shading there. I'll work on that later.
Micamone Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 I love it! i think it looks awesome, the font is difficult to read, but like FTXG said we know you name, and it look REALLY cool like that. i also like that quote in your siggy
Revenge Posted February 20, 2009 Author Posted February 20, 2009 Thanks. I thought of it in Drama, reading a book called "Physics for Poets." I was just making fun of everything I read, and one of the chapter titles was "Does God Play Dice?" It's just a dark joke I thought of on the spot.

Yup, arachnids actually only have two distinct body segments: the segment in question is known as the cephalothorax. :graduated: As for the signature - well, I'm no graphics expert, but I'd describe it as sleek, dark, and made of pure win. :P Maybe I just like dark stuff too much...
Captain Awesome Pants Posted March 1, 2009 Posted March 1, 2009 Well Revenge, I can whip you up an avatar if you'd like. But otherwise, I think it's an amazing sig. I love the spiderweb. And definitely the spider. I can't believe you drew that yourself.
Macabre Posted March 1, 2009 Posted March 1, 2009 I really like it, especially the lettering. It has this nice calligraphic (is that the right word?) quality to it.
AmberFireFeather Posted June 10, 2009 Posted June 10, 2009 Hi! I love your artwork! I do have a question though: have you ever seen a red spider? I know of Black and Red, but not just red. But it looks great, almost like the Twilight covers! AmberFireFeather This topic has been edited by a member of staff (Maruto) because of a violation of the forum rules.
