Anyways... can I have a bit of feedback? Which ones are you favourites and which are your least favourite?

 

You're getting the right idea.
I like what you're trying to do.
The two main things that annoy me are 1.The placement of the renders. There's a tutorial called the Rule of Thirds which basically says place them slightly off center. Don't place them right in the center or off to the side.
2. You didn't really do much to the renders. One thing you can try is smudging the outlines to make them blend in better. Like where Demyx has the whites on his picture from the crop.

Besides that, I think they're alright for your first ones. Some of the colors are the right color for the character, but wrong shade, you know? Follow some tutorials, and spend a little extra time on them, it'll help fulfill your potential.

EDIT: Btw, I love the backgrounds for Xigbar, Demyx, and Luxord

 

Yeah thanks for the constructive criticsm, took a look at the rule of thirds tutorial and will probably update my signatures to abide by that rule, it's pretty clear now, I see the flow in the examples Misty made. I'll move the renders tommorow or something...

 

To be honest...these seem pretty rookie stuff, but that's actually okay. You've taken the initiative and that's what matters.

Making a signature isn't about getting a nice background and slapping the render in it. It takes much more than that.

I'd say that you really need to try and work with your background choice, or just plain start with gradients only. Try to blend the render in, and that's not only smudging the outlines, but it's also using the brushes, the blurs and effects like C4D's and Fractals, textures to the advantage of the sig in order to make the render a part of it and vice-versa.

There's also the light, you might want to create a light source, whether with lighting effects, lens flare, or just a white brush.

The text isn't that great either, it's not really blended in, and the sig size(while this is optional) is too big.

Overall, you're doing great for a rookie. Keep going and you'll see improvements.

 

Thanks for being honest, yeah I see what you mean. I will probably learn (someday) how to render original backgrounds... these were just image searches placed as a background and tweaking with opacity and saturation/hues in order to get the colours I wanted so good point there.
